My Grocery Challenge

Chas · February 1, 2010 ·

For a while now I have been trying to cut our grocery costs and still feed my family well.
I went through January on this challenge and did pretty well, a couple of times going over but cutting somewhere else to make it.
This February I am going to document (hopefully 😉 ) my attempt at keeping our grocery budget at $40 a week.

 
Now know this… I have some meat in my freezer and some items in my pantry. 
My plan will be to use the $40 to buy fresh fruit, veggies and dairy. 
I will be making all of the bread items we will need, bread, buns, cinnamon rolls… whatever. (I have some wheat still in my bucket)
I will post my weekly grocery list and our menu (breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks).
I will also post what I bought and how much it was.
If all works as planned, by the end of February, I will have cleared out some of my freezer and pantry and only spent $160 dollars on groceries. 
Stay tuned… 
My Cup Runneth Over…
