Using a Grocery List
How many times have you wandered into the grocery store to buy some milk and bread, and end up spending $100 that was not planned? Using a grocery list is a great way to minimize this! I laminate mine, keep it on the fridge and when I need something, use a wet erase marker to circle the item. Also, when I go through the sales and coupons, I will write a "c" by the item, alerting me that I have a coupon for that item. Right before heading to the store, I paper clip all the coupons on the back of my list. To download the list (.pdf), click here. For the list (.doc) that you can change, click here.

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the downloadable word file. My mom would always use a list like this, and yours was very easy to customize for myself.
