Finally got my grocery bill under $80 a week after months of trying

The problem was I kept buying the same things out of habit, even when they weren't on sale. It took me about three months to actually start planning meals around the weekly flyer instead. Anyone have a good system for tracking what's on sale at different stores?

Planning around sales is smart but it's a LOT of work. I just buy the same cheap basics every week and call it a day.

But is it really that much work though.

Look at it this way, if it feels like a lot of work, it probably is. OliviaButler has a point about it being a lot of effort, and that's coming from someone who actually tries. Most people just want to eat, not run a spreadsheet on their groceries.

Yeah it's crazy how we'll put more effort into meal planning than actual life planning lol.
