After a long phone discussion with a friend the other day, I was inspired to take on a 30 day grocery challenge for my family. The idea is to use more of the items we have on hand, plan meals better and to be a little more frugal and resourceful. All areas that I need to work on.
Why $30 ? I have allowed a very modest budget of $30 a week for Milk, Fresh Fruit & Veggies or any other grocery items we may need.
Could you do it?
I am determined to try ! I will be checking in weekly to update my progress and post my grocery receipts.
Wish my family luck!
Oh ya....Did I mention that I have two bottomless pit teenagers in the house??
Begins March 1 - March 31

Good luck with the challenge! I would have held out for summer when the garden is going full force. : )
I wish you well and can't wait to see how it goes - with your grocery prices up there I imagine it will be tough. I get spoiled by the competitive grocery market and double coupon policies at my local stores in Texas - and then I go shopping in Priest River in the summer and have a stroke over the price of a gallon of milk.
