Grocery Budgeting Part 10

This will be the final post in this mini series on grocery budgeting.

Just a few final thoughts...

Here are a few other key things which can help keep your bill lower:

Menu plan

Make a grocery list and stick to it

Grow a vegetable garden

Use less - of cleaning products, washing powder etc than the instructions tell you to use

Avoid ready- made - cook and bake from scratch

Have a kitchen day once per week when you bake, cook extra, cook beans in bulk, cook chicken and shred, make extra meals for the freezer, preserving fruit.

I hope these posts have helped a little! Enjoy your budgeting and saving. make it a challenge, fun and see where it takes you!

Oh, nothing special I just peel and cut up the apples and bring them to the boil with some water.I then puree it up and freeze.

I love being a stay at home mum with our six beautiful children from the Lord. Each day we strive to live faithfully for Him in thankfulness for His gift of full and free salvation.
