No we haven't given up anything. LIke others I just plan better and actually started taking my lunch instead of going across the street to the gas station. Can you believe I actually lost a little weight not eating that greasy food!?!?! We also don't by alot of meat and if we do it's always always on sale. Dh is a big hunter so I have learned to cook with that and not make it taste so gamey!

OMG..d oyou love it?! We just got a Trader Joe's here and my aunt bought me a bottle of it (I like cheap wine) and I love it

I haven't given anything up....I just keep doing what I have been doing for the past few years...buying on sale and keeping my eye out for good deals.

I have not given up anything because of the cost. I have given up things because of the health factor. I am buying more generic brands. Oh, I am also making a spreadsheet of what things cost at the two big grocery stores here, Walmart & Target...I was a tad surprised. A gallon of skim milk at one of the grocery stores was $3.06 and a gallon of skim milk at Walmart was $3.67. If I didn't pay attention and start the spreadsheet, I would have thought that Walmart was cheaper. Both were generic brands, so I am not comparing Kemps to a generic brand etc.
