What is the Grocery Challenge?
This is a set amount of money that your family will try to stay under for the week for all of your household needs.
What do I include in the Grocery Challenge?
All groceries for the week
Any household supplies
Any personal care items
Any baby care items
Any pet food or treats
*Remember every family is different and has different needs so try not to compare yourself to others. Kristin and I both have a family of four with 2 small children and 2 large dogs, but we both have different needs that requires us to set our own grocery challenge. I have 2 in diaper and Kristin only has one and my husband eat a ton more than Kristin’s husband (you wouldn’t know it by looking at him but he can out eat anyone). Kristin on the other hand had to put both her children on a special diet so she has to be very careful about the food that she buys. So even though we both have the same size family we have different needs.
My Grocery Challenge this week is to spend under $70 for the week. We didn’t do much shopping last week because of the wedding so we have some money left from last week. My family includes my husband, 2 small children-both in diapers, 2 large dogs, and 15 fish!
Share what your grocery challenge for this week is and then come back this weekend at our Show and Tell and tell us how you did!
