[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have spending issues and for a family of 3 (2yr old kid) we spend over $1,200 at Trader Joes and Whole Foods. She refuses to shop at regular grocery stores. I bet it would cut our bill by $250-300 if she just went to Giant.[/quote] I bet it wouldn't. It's a mindset youhave to change here, not just the location. Can you start the conversation with her less confrontationally than "you need to stop shopping at WF"? like "how can we spend less on food?" and then go through a few receipts and let suggestions like seasonal food, etc. come out of a discussion when you point out that you're spending $50 a month on organic berries in winter?[/quote]
