[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 707340, member: 16024"] I shop once a month at Aldis for the things I usually buy there, and once per week I shop the sales at the local grocery store. I know people that shop for a few things every few days, and that method works well for them. I would probably do that if it was just me. Or I might order online, like GN does. I really like that idea. Having to be really careful to use up my fresh stuff before it spoils is one draw back to this once-per-week method. I stock up on non-perishables that are on sale each week, and try to only buy items on sale, to stretch my dollars. Doesn't always work, though. Hubby likes to put all our expenses on the credit card and pay it off every month, to get the rewards. I think I would do better with the envelope system that I used to use back before we were together. It kept me on a strict budget. The majority of my recipes are things I make often, so I always have those ingredients on hand, and I don't need to make too many extra trips to the grocery. We grill out a lot, weather permitting, and eat lots of salads. [/QUOTE]
