[quote=Anonymous]Shop in bulk at Costco. I can get a month's worth of meat, frozen foods, pasta, rice, jars and canned food, beer/wine plus Frontline for the dogs, paper products, cleaning products (including detergent), toothpaste/mouthwash/dental floss, cold medicine, and back when I was buying them diapers - for around $400. And you can save on gas too plus get deals on big expenditures like tires, matresses, etc. I then supplement with a weekly trip to the regular grocery store for fresh produce, dairy, bakery and snack items. How much I spend each week depends on how we're doing with the budget. If we are spending less elsewhere then we can afford more splurges. Take advantage of no or very low cost entertainment (parks /playgrounds/nature centers/bike rides/budget matinees). Plan your trips out to save gas money. [/quote]
