I will definitely be putting many of your suggestions into practice (especially the one about doing the shopping when the kids are in school) and I’ll be sure to let you know how it goes for our family. We’re realizing that healthier doesn’t necessarily mean more expensive. We started packing lunches a little while back and I/we eat before shop. We avoid frequent trips to the store and plan ahead. Another approach that I adopted was doing some of my shopping online whenever it’s possible, and I save a lot from discount sites like Savingswatch.com. Less trips outside means I save on gas (which is great!), and I haven’t paid shipping in years! I highly suggest you check out the site. I actually get cash back on every purchase I make as well as additional rewards and freebies, too! It’s a win-win situation for moms like me wrestling with the budget every week!

Grocery shopping is one of the easiest areas for me to analyze and cut back on my budget. I have to stop asking my husband to stop at the store on his way home from work to pick up just one item- he always buys extra, unnecessary items, and he doesn't have my coupons with him! One point about the frozen veggies tip- frozen veggies can actually be more nutritious than fresh, because they are frozen at the peak of their nutritional value. Fresh veggies that have been sitting in bins for awhile have lost much of their nutrition. You have some great pointers here.
