Re: How Little Can I Spend on Groceries in 2024?

I didn’t go shopping last week due to impending bad weather, and as I was getting ready to go out this morning I looked out and it was snowing heavily. It stopped after a few minutes and off I went (we had snow showers on and off all morning). I went to Aldi and spent $56.00 and change, so stayed wi...

Re: Daily check in January 14

Good evening. I am finally feeling better. I slept well last night, but I also managed to stay awake until 9:10 last night. It has been a rough week from pain. I came home everyday and just curled up into the fetal position with my heating pad and didn’t move for hours. I even skipped dinner Wednesd...

I did score a bag of the awesome Fremont crab cakes, which are a once in a blue moon thing, and stocked up on canned tomatoes.
I love those crab cakes. I grab a bag every time I find them too!

Re: Daily Check-in January 9, 2024

Good afternoon- I hope everyone is doing well. It has been either a busy day (Sunday I cooked/prepped a lot of food), a tiring day (fell asleep before 8:00 last night) or just not feeling great (regular monthly female ailment today). All meals have been from home this whole year, which is typical. I...

Re: How Little Can I Spend on Groceries in 2024?

Because of the impending bad weather, I just made up my menu based on what I had on hand in the freezer, pantry and fridge. I have a couple of plantains that were not quite ready to cook last week, plus butternut squash that I used to make soup and then put 2 bags of cubed into the freezer. I also j...

Re: How Little Can I Spend on Groceries in 2024?

I am also returning to Aldi for the majority of our groceries. The savings averages 30%, even though it's at the far end of my shopping range. My goal for January is under $90 a week for DH and I and a few items for DS. Our pantry is well-stocked with canned goods and there's meat in the freezer, s...
