Weekly Shopping Trip

Starting this week, I’ve decided to set a grocery budget for our household. Although I know that I’ve been saving money, I’m pretty sure that I could save more by setting this budget and prioritizing my purchases to stay within it. So, for now, our grocery budget is $160/month. If we’re going to go over, then we’re putting something back! This is week 1 and we’re at $17.72, so we’re right on track!

BTW – after I took this picture, I realized that I had forgotten an entire bag of food in the car!

What we got:

Publix:

• 2 – boxes Betty Crocker premium muffin mix
• 4 – boxes Green Giant frozen vegetables
• 2 – cans Progresso cannellini beans
• 4 – 28-oz cans Hunt’s diced tomatoes
