Last week we did pretty well with sticking with the menu. We did stray here and there but overall did very well. I started planning my menu's by pay periods instead of weekly, which caused me to visit the grocery store weekly. Now that I plan paycheck to paycheck I am able to see exactly what we will be having each day and can buy all the items ahead of time. This allows a lot less trips to the grocery store, which can result in me impulse buying. I do not understand why it took me so long to do this. I am liking it because less food is being wasted and money is being saved.
