Taking a Bite out of the Grocery Bill

This post contains sponsored links from Grocery University.

Currently I grocery shop weekly.  I try to make a menu plan ahead of time and then stick pretty closely to that plan when we head to the store. I do not currently budget our grocery trips. Some weeks the bill is just $75, some weeks it's $150 or even $175! When I started making up a budget, I quickly realized that we were spending close to $700 per month on groceries. For two (and a half) people!  If you want to factor in what we are spending eating out in addition to groceries our monthly food budget is close to $1000.
Let's just let that sink in a minute shall we?

$1000.... We are spending nearly 22% of our monthly income on food. That.is.ridiculous.

Hubs doesn't think we can cut the grocery bill much but I would like to challenge him on that.  I've read dozens of articles on how to cut your grocery bill, watched hours of couponing shows, looked at coupon sites galore, perused our local newspapers... and I have yet to implement a system that works for us. Coupons in our local paper are sparse and hardly ever for things we actually eat. The TV shows on using coupons focus on those with "stockpiles" and all I can think about is "we have no place to put that much stuff!" and "how are they ever going to eat 100 yogurts before they expire?!"  The coupon sites are sometimes tedious to look through and who has time for that with a 13 month old?

There has to be a better, more efficient way to save, right? I mean, families of 4+ are claiming a monthly grocery budget of less than half what we spend.  Coupons can't be that difficult to find and use because thousands of people use them every day.  There has to be a way to maximize their use to my advantage without buying mountains of stuff to clog up our guest room. People have it figured out and I should be able to figure it out too!

Enter: Grocery University by one of my favorite bloggers.  This is a program she has talked about and used to reduce her grocery bill and others simply rave about it.  I am excited to see the reduction in our grocery bill and I am even more excited to tell you that there is a SUPER SALE on this program happening TOMORROW!

Grocery University is usually $9.97 and I am certain it will save you more than that just on your first shopping trip.  But for tomorrow only you can get this easy to use money saving program for as low as $2.99! So what do you get for $2.99?  You get a 2hr audio course on everything you need to know to make the most of your grocery budget, a printable workbook with more tips and visual aids, and the bonus Rock Bottom Price Database.  And?  It comes with a 60 day money back guarantee!! Seriously, what do you (and I) have to lose other than hefty grocery bills?  I'm so excited to get started and see how much of a difference it makes for us!

So more about that super one-day sale I was telling you about... The early bird will catch the worm on this one!  Save your family a little money and catch this amazing deal on Grocery University!
