Grocery Shopping and Menu Week of June 1st
I am starting the week at June 1st because we were camping the first 2 days of the week. Starting fresh with a new month and a new way of eating. We are moving away from processed foods to more fresh fruits/veggies, leaner meats, whole grain pastas etc. This is starting June 1st and this weeks shopping trip reflects that change.
I shopped 2 places this week:
Youngstocks (Produce stand)
Safeway
Total for the week: $92.56
I did something I normally do not do and that is buy cat litter and dishwasher soap at the grocery store. I was too tired to make another stop and was happy to find they had both things ON SALE!! I added them in the picture but do not count them in my grocery totals so I have removed them from the $ spent.
To see how others did this week check out the Grocery Cart Challenge
