Lets Go Shopping!

I  Had a friend tell me It would be a good idea to put a grocery list together. What a good idea huh! I make menus once a month and shop for two weeks at a time. The list will change from month to month with what I'm cooking but these are a lot of my staples. Produce can get expensive so shop the adds or wait till it comes back into season. Frozen is an awesome way to save money with the price of fruit and veggies.This is a picture of a regular shopping trip.I make stops in between Walmart, Smiths and Good Earth
