Eat From The Pantry FLOP

This has been the longest month ever! I totally failed this challenge but was actually thinking I didn't do that bad until I just sat down to add up the evidence. I am ashamed. I think I have a grocery shopping problem. I need help, do they have groups for people like me? It looks worse in writing so here it is:

1/4 $66
1/9 $27
1/10 $101
1/12 $108
1/16 $131
1/19 $40
1/21 $87
1/26 $135
1/29 $312 (I stocked back up I couldn't help it)

The longest I went between shopping was 5 days. I spent over $1000 and $125 eating out. I can't believe it.

I did get my refrigerator cleaned out because I swear it was empty all month!

I'm very happy that my pantry, fridge and freezer are totally full again.

I don't know what else to say for myself.

  1. YIKES! What's a normal month for you as far as groceries go? I try to stay between $600-700 including eating out. Coupons help...but some months it's just hard.

    Don't beat yourself up...that challenge works well if you start with a VERY full freezer/pantry.

  2. I know your challenge was to not grocery shop but maybe you learned about shopping instead. I always say I am going to keep track of what I spend each month.I have yet to do it. I am afraid.
