My Weekly Grocery Budget Review

I love reading Blog post about peoples grocery budgets and there progress. I also enjoy when bloggers recap there entire week of savings. I decided every week I will recap my entire week of savings, my Grocery Budget, and if I was able to keep under budget. Before I coupon shopped I never had a weekly grocery budget I just closed my eyes and handed over my debit card to the cashier, grocery shopping use to be a painful experience (spending around $150 a week) now its an addiction. I have set my weekly grocery budget $50.00 my grocery budget includes all our family needs diapers, toothpaste, paper goods, food, you get the picture :)
