Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI came across your blog and can relate to the issues you are having with overspending on groceries. I live with my family in a rural area of Southern Ontario and the only grocery store in town is overpriced. I have been spending a lot of time thinking about ways to reduce my food bill. It is difficult because food is a necessity. We tend to purchase the foods that we crave opposed to need.
I have been avoiding purchasing popular food brands because they are expensive. I really like “No Name” products because they are cheap and good quality. My family and I can trust the food that they make. I want to stop buying so many meat products and focus on dishes that can be made from vegetables. I cannot afford steaks and there are other ways to get my daily protein intake.
Thanks for posting such valuable information and be sure to check out my blog!
