[quote=Anonymous]I agree OP that it can be frustrating that most of the healthier food out there can be so expensive. I would love the luxury of eating organic things, but honest to God, I would be broke as a joke if all I bought was organic.

Some tips on saving $$ on groceries:

1). Almond Milk. Do you and your hubby drink this type of milk because you are fans of the flavor or are either one of you "lactose intolerant?" 
I ask this because these types of milks {I.e., Almond, Soy, Sun, etc.} cost usually twice as much. If it is about taste alone, you might want to switch to regular milk.

2). Cereal. Many of the generic cereals on the market now are pretty good. Not ALL, but many. Also, it is cheaper to buy bagged cereal vs. boxed cereal.

3). Instead of CVS, I advise you to purchase your toiletries at ideally Walmart or if you don't live near one, Target. Drug store prices are pretty overpriced for many toiletries and the best prices are found at either Walmart or Target. Plus, both accept manufacturers coupons as well.

4). I agree....going to the Supermarket 2x month should be the maximum if you want to stay within your budget. The more you go, the more you $pend. Plain & simple.

5). I know this may sound cliche....but it really is the truth. NEVER EVER go grocery shopping while hungry or thirsty. I am sure I don't need to explain why. LOL.[/quote]
