Once upon I time we used too do that – we’d figure out our meals for the week, get the things we needed, and hey presto everything was good. Then we sort of fell out of the habit (when it got difficult for my wife to go shopping with me – she has arthritis in her ankles) and the grocery budget has been suffering ever since

I do like your idea of the meal cards – I’ll have to give that a go.

Great post! I spend less when I go alone and this year my goal is to use coupons (they take a lot of work)
Planning your meals are great because then you have all the ingredients and I am less likely to say lets eat out!

I was divorced / single parent when my daughter was a toddler. I also worked full-time. I rarely took her to the grocery store with me. It just wasn't worth the grief when I had to pay close attention to everything I spent. I worked 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. so I would book the sitter or day care until 4 p.m. Then I'd get the groceries BEFORE picking up the daughter. She couldn't ask for what she didn't see. And I didn't have distractions when I was doing coupon math and looking for dinner ingredients. Monroe on a Budget’s last blog post..Menu planning tips from Domestic Cents

Being able to go to the grocery store alone is like going on a date night. I love it and I can actually take the time to look around and find some good deals. I love my kids, but so many questions when we shop and they are always hungry or tired. Boy, now that I think of it, going to the grocery store by myself is like a vacation:) The Passive Dad’s last blog post..California Tax Refund Could Be Paid Via IOU
