[QUOTE="Lil, post: 654079, member: 17309"] I'm not going to say that I do save money...but I will tell you that in going over our budget and monthly spending I've noticed where we spend - every day or two there's an entry in my checking account for a grocery store. $20, $25, $30, $22, $26...it adds up BIG TIME! It's the constant little "Oh, I need a bell pepper for tonight's dinner." But you don't just buy a $1.50 bell pepper, you go in and come out with $20 worth because you see this and that. "Oh, that meat is on sale!" "Oh, we are low on sugar too!" "Hmm, I'm hungry now, I'll get some wings at the deli." We used to make a weekly meal plan, make of list of all the food needed to make the meals, from that make a list of what needed to be bought, and buy it. That four-step plan saved us a LOT of money and we desperately need to go back to it. [/QUOTE]
