I meant to post this nearly a week ago, but like the saying goes, time makes fools of us all. So this is all about what I bought for groceries a week ago at Superstore.
…
Today (Wednesday October 14) I did the week’s shopping. While I meant to be responsible about what I bought, I hadn’t taken the time to organize things as well as I should have. Ideally, I would have planned at least a general menu for the week instead of planning my meals as I walked down the aisles.
This resulted in a somewhat surprising bill at checkout. However, I took the following into consideration after lifting my jaw off the dirty grocery store floor:
- Some of the purchases were toiletries, etc which should have a separate budget
- Some of the purchases were kitchen tools (like parchment paper etc)
- Plenty of the larger expenses were things that will last at least 4-6 weeks, and won’t need to be replenished on my next few trips
- Brian’s back today! So most of the food cost will be split in half.
