One important part of frugal meal planning is making a list of what you need. People who have a grocery list, budget and pricebook are more successful in keeping there grocery bills down.
Here my approach to grocery shopping:
1. Check out the store flyers. Mark any loss leaders-can I stock up them. (ie beans, chicken on sale)
2. Meal planning what are my meals for the next week. What do I need. Add them to my list.
3. Regular items each week that are bought, bananas, other fresh fruit that is on sale, salad fixing.
4. Irregular things that may need to be bought such as ketchup, salad dressings.
You can keep your grocery list in a notebook or more organized on a grocery list chart
Enjou your savings!
