The last couple threads got me thinking. Anyone want to have a grocery challenge next week to see if we can stick to a set budget? Let's count only groceries, no toilietries, diapers, etc. Should we say $50 or $75. Then each day we can total up how much you spent on groceries if you went. This way we can also share ideas and meals. The difference between $50 and $75 should account for price flexuations from state to state.
