Hi
Just after some advice about how to get our shopping down. We don't have an Aldi or Lidl near us, so it's just Sainsburys or Tescos. I already meal plan, and I already buy at least 50% value range. I'm just wondering whether to start shopping once a month or once a fortnight for all the non-perishables (storage isn't an issue) and then just top up from the local market/coop during the week? Do people find they spend less doing this? At the moment, we spend approx £100 a week for 5 of us, that includes nappies, toiletries etc. Even when I do on line shopping I still spend this amount, and then end up buying stuff in the week anyway because of the substitutions... And advice?
