Budget Buster

Ok... so last summer I really tried to stick to making a menu for dinners to help limit my number trips to the grocery store. Well I was consistent and I cut our monthly grocery bill

IN HALF

Wow- just by making a menu and shopping in advance and all at once.
And it only lasted that one month....

Well I have been inspired by melskitchencafe.com to start menu planning again, she has great tips, and like her I am planning two weeks at a time making one big shopping trip every other week, with a small trip on the second week. Well I started this week, making the menu and grocery list was so easy- and it took maybe 30 min tops!

I am excited to see how much money we will save!!!!

So here is my challenge to all of you to do the same, or if anyone has any tips let me know! I will post my menus if anyone wants ideas :)
