I did have to end up stopping at two stores to get my groceries, but I did come under budget for my groceries and that ALWAYS makes me happy. I just really tried to shop the sales and pay attention to what was cheaper. I orginally needed two pounds of ground beef but grass fed beef was NOT on sale apparently, however ground organic turkey was! It's also a much healthier, leaner meat. I was pretty excited as it was almost $3 cheaper. Making small swaps like that can really add up. I also did some trickery. I bought pears and 3 green apples for .99 cents instead of a bag apples which ended up being cheaper as well.
I feel like I scored at the grocery store last night, which makes me for a happy girl.
Here's the menu for this week: (I left out breakfast because it consists of nut butter, fruit, and egg whites. Depending on the day I follow up with a smoothie/protein ball...etc.)
