I love your blog. You always get such great deals. You're an inspiration.
I'd be interested in knowing if you have a set budget each month for groceries. Do you try to stay under a certain dollar amount? How much do you think you spend each month on health and beauty products AND groceries? Have you ever tracked for an entire month how much you spend versus how much the actual retail price would have been without store discounts and coupons??
Maybe you can do a post on this in the future to inspire others to stick to a budget.
Keep up the good work!

I dont really have a set budget, some weeks i spend alittle more if there is a good deal and some weeks i dont. I do noticed that my grocery bill has been cut in half since all this started. I probably spend 250 a month on groceries for a family of 4. And I hardly spend anything on health and beauty items.. I would say $50 a month, if that. I'll have to keep track of it and see.
Thanks for the comments :)
