OrgJunkie.com is another great website I have found for some organizational tips. Every Monday she hosts a Menu Plan "party." This is my first one but Chris and I have been doing this for a couple of weeks and it has worked well for us.
Plan the menu for the next week, make a list (which includes stuff for all of our lunches and for breakfast as well as suppers), and Saturday morning go to the grocery store and only buy from the list. We are really trying to get our grocery bill down. I have not found a great plan yet to work off the deals going on but last week our grocery bill was $97 and this week we were at $90. I have found some great places to get great inexpensive meals so hopefully we can keep going down down down on the amount. Slowly but surely we are getting there. ((Then comes another mouth to feed, another set of diapers, and formula - Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!))
