Kroger-ing

So not really considering there is 

NO

Kroger here in these parts

I have finally settled into

Walmarts

for my weekly grocery trip

And please say it right

It's WALMARTS

with an "S"

not just WALMART

that's how granny says it

do the old people of your family add the "S"?

Any who...

I am posting about this because it is one of my stupid

"resolutions"

to have a better grocery budget

So 2 full weeks into the new year and I am doing better

but I swear I am going to shave another $25 off 

some how

some way

I make a list and stick to it

99%

I have been trying to plan at least 2 dinners

Those will last at least 2 nights each

more if Mark is out of town

This week the only thing I bought off the list was

Don't know if you can tell from the photo

They are football oreo's

I thought the boys would get a kick out of them

I usually have about $10 worth of coupons

Not much

but hey 10 bucks is 10 bucks right

I think the key is going to be better meal planning

going back to the basics

like grilled chicken and vegies

and of course

plain and simple

eating less!!!

This week's trip ran me $170

Last week I spent about $200

Let's just see if the food lasts me all week long

And with a vacation date set

I totally plan on eating less!

This is what I saw in the checkout lane

The guy behind me bought:

Yes, I believe that's 8

Red Baron pizza's

And in his cart still

(if you can tell)

weight watchers yogurt and snacks
