It's not what you make; it's what you spend.

k so since I am sorta new can I play too? I read the entire thread and realized I had no idea of how much I am spending on groceries. so I did a little research only to find out and be embarrassed by the numbers that came up. keep in mind that I have only been on mommy savers for about 3 weeks now so I am really trying to learn the ropes.

Here goes - Last month grocery total spent $725
so far this month grocery total spent $625

While I am beginning to stockpile and I did stock my freezer with meat during this month that still looks like a lotta $$$ for groceries.

Most of the time it is just DH and myself. I always cook enough for lunch the next day though so we don't have to eat out.

Ireally had no idea I was spending this much
