I shop at Kroger using their deals and coupons, which also gives me gas points. I shop a lot at Dollar General also using their coupons. I buy fresh veggies and make casseroles such as squash, zucchini, with mushrooms (topped with cheese). Dishes such as that can last for two dinner meals.

Although, I have to admit that with just me and hubby, we can make it on a lot less than a large family and I do not cook as much as I used to. Sandwiches are usually what we have for lunch. When the grandkids come to visit, I make sure I have their favorites on hand so that is the only thing that increases my grocery budget.

In addition, we have a nearby local store that has it’s own meat section and they cut up their own meat and package it so it’s cheaper. Other than that, I’m losing weight. I’m on the “Venezuelan” diet plan.
