I spend a bit of time lurking on Reddit's personal finance forums and there seems to be a lot of chatter about how much people spend on groceries. So I want to spend a bit of time thinking about how our money is spent in this area, in more detail.
I don't typically keep grocery receipts, but did for last week's big shop. We only have two grocery stores in my community - so suggestions around going to your local low cost shop don't work for me. We plan ahead, try to get to Costco every couple of months or so and we watch for local sales. Here's a peek at what some of our local costs are.
If there is interest I can post this again as I get more historical information. My mom and I both track sales in the same excel worksheet, so that if I can't remember what a good price is I can go back and look. I've been negligent in keeping this up to date, but I am going to start doing this for a while again.
...and no, we don't by strip loin steak very often but we did this trip so wanted to show it on the tracker. They were too thick and delicious looking to pass by.
