Shopping with Budget Lady

So I’m going shopping with Budget Lady today. She is the friend I told you about who puts away, for savings, over $600.00 a month and only spends only 300.oo a month on groceries for a family of 5. Am I the only one who thinks that is amazing? Last night’s homework was to peruse Dining on A Dime and put together a month worth of daily meals, gather the recipes and decide what I need to make them. Then, make a list of items we need to make the food and snacks I compiled. We are going to shop sales at grocery stores and keep to my list. I’m just so tickled that coupons aren’t involved that I am willing to do just about anything! The truth is, so far this isn’t so bad. Hopefully, I can make it the whole day without putting something in my cart that doesn’t belong. I’ll let you know.
