Living Life With Mama presents.....Dec. 2nd to Dec. 15th meal plan, single mom

Nice meal planning and grocery haul. I also refuse to buy fruit due to the high cost, it’s so terrible. It’s obvious to me that careful thought goes into your planning and shopping. We don’t have an Aldi’s where I live but we have a Walmart and Grocery Outlet. If I shop at a big chain grocery store I pay easily 1/3 more, probably due to employee salaries, they are all union, but sometimes there is no choice.

Thank you. I totally agree with big box stores you can get 4 things and easily spend $100. Out of all the readings, videos, and people I have talked to. The same advice I got across the board. The best way to save money is to use what you already have and go into the store with a list and a plan and never go hungry. We try our best to do all 4 but usually having a list and a plan is all we have. Lol, but it has for sure saved me tons and a lot less stressed. I used to prep like crazy. Every single meal was prepped and put into the freezer. These days we just don't have the time to do HUGE prep meals days. It would take me at least two days to get it all done. OR my daughter wouldn't like it.
