[quote=Anonymous]Shopping the sales is the way to start. But you have to change your shopping mentality. Instead of buying dinner for 7 nights and all of the associated ingredients, you buy in bulk. So for example, one week chicken is on sale. So you buy 40lbs of it. Prep it and freeze it. Now, for the next 8-10 weeks, you don't have to buy chicken. The week that you do it, it will probably eat up most of your grocery budget. But the subsequent weeks it gets better. I also buy a qtr cow and freeze it. The rest of the money is spent on whatever produce is on sale that week, milk, yogurt, and eggs. I try and save a few dollars for staple items like condiments and such.[/quote]
