Meg here! I figured it was time I share one of my grocery trips, since so many of you have been requesting other stores besides Aldi and Kroger.
First, a few things you should know:
- I live in Florida and Publix is our main grocery store. Our Aldi in town is not very good (in my opinion) and not worth driving to. I typically shop at Publix 2-4 times per month and Trader Joe’s once per month.
- I am a vegetarian and we eat almost entirely meatless meals at our house. My husband does eat turkey sandwiches each day for lunch, has meat when we go out to dinner, or sometimes we make meals that have the option to add meat (like the chili baked potatoes this week). But for the most part, we typically eat dinners together and they’re vegetarian. So you won’t see much meat in my grocery trips and that’s why.
- Like the rest of our team, I practice the buy-ahead principle — meaning I plan my meals based upon what I already have on hand and what’s on sale this week. And I often use sales, deals, and coupons to stock up on items to use for the next few months until it goes on sale again.
- These grocery trips are just for two people — me and my husband. We don’t have any kids. As you can see, my grocery budget/trips vary greatly from the other ones you’ve seen on this site. I’m often paying double or triple what Crystal, Gretchenand Brigette are because of where I’m located and what stores I have access to. But I don’t let it get me down and I do the best I can! Let this encourage you to do the best you can, with what you have, right where you are. ????
My Publix Trip This Week
It was a GREAT week to shop at Publix! If you’re a Publix shopper, then you know some weeks are way better than others.
I was especially excited about the FREE veggie burgers, since we eat those on a regular basis. I bought four boxes and already had several boxes in the freezer from the last time I bought them on sale, so we are stocked up for at least 6 months now!…
