Trimming The Grocery Budget Podcast


http://cookesfrontier.blogspot.com


In my podcast this week, I talk about our grocery budget being the only place I have left in our budget to trim. For the most part, we have eliminated everything possible to make our budget as small as possible, but I can usually find a way to trim off a few more dollars if need be.

 Here are some of the ways I have learned to trim it down:

  • Learn the difference between wants and needs
  • Menu planning is a KEY tactic to trimming grocery costs
  • How not to fall for the warehouse club trap, instead learn when something is an actual good deal and not just on sale.
  • Cook from scratch
And, to help you get going cooking from scratch, I share a recipe for Cherry Cheesecake Shortcake. Enjoy! 

You can listen to this podcast here, Trimming the Grocery Budget and below you can take a look at last weeks shows from all of the hosts. So many to choose from, so little time......LOL

  2. I usually do provide a readable post of my podcasts, but this week it just wasn't possible. Sorry! I do the best I can and with small kids at home, my time isn't always my own to do what I'd like.
