Keeping grocery costs down.

This week as I pass the small grocery store near the kid's school I stop in for fresh fruit. I have noticed we seem to eat more fruit when I pick a few things every few days. We seem to eat the fruit and it stays fresher??? It just seems to work better and there seems to be far less waste. I used to buy it by the bag full...that method overwhelmed us for some reason. Alot of it we wasted. I really like making a pit stop and purchasing a small variety to eat. The girls seem to like it far better. The result seems to be a better budgeted food budget.

I agree, it's much better to buy perishable food in small quantities, unless you are SURE you are going to use up the surplus somehow. I used to live across the street from a grocery store and bought fruit and vegetables every day. I miss that.

It seems to work for me.....I love that kinda of a plan! A grocery across the street would be really awesome! I would miss that as well.
