So I have been going back and fourth on how to save more Money on buying groceries so Tonight I made a master shopping list of the things I buy every week & the prices of the food items...
Dairy Department
--------------------------
Yogurt-$10 for $10-$1 a piece if not on sale I will buy the cheaper Yogurt
Eggs-$2.99-1 pack
Butter-$1.99-i jar
Cheese Slices-$1.99-store brand American Cheese not Kraft
Milk-$2.29-1 Gallon
Snack Department
---------------------------
Chips-$1-1 bag
Fruit Snacks-$3-1 box of 30 packages I buy at walmart
Crackers-$6.49-Goldfish are the only ones my kids eat and no store brand goldfish crackers
Sauce Department
----------------------------
Salad Dressing-$1.99-1 jar
Sweet & Sour Sauce-$3.99-1 Jar
Drinks Deparment
---------------------------
Frozen Juice,I am cutting back on diet soda and not allowed to drink it but one glass a week,the Juice in Bottles is getting expensive,I drink more water and am not allowed to drink Juice,I can also drink milk
Frozen Treats Department
---------------------------------------
Popsicles-$1.99-this is a sometimes treat for my Kids during the summer and I only purchase when on sale
I would be interested in learning how to make your own Laundry Soap,Cleaning supplies ETC it is expensive to buy those at the store
I also make a monthly trip to costco but am not including this in the purchases since it is a seperate store...
I clip coupons and shop at walmart.....
I get a budget of $100 a week if I stay on budget and shop like this for 5 shopping trips I will save a balance of $68 every weekly trip and will save $340 doing this 5 times,then I can have money to pay for our trip to the water park in August for my son's Birthday...
Any other tips would be appreciated,PLEASE NO RUDE COMMENTS..I am new to this...thanks for reading...
