I’m now in a pretty good routine of grocery shopping at Aldi every other week and it seems to be saving me some money. I did this Aldi grocery haul last Thursday, rather than Friday, because I was in town that day for an appointment. We live 15-20 minutes out of town so I try…

Happy fall, y’all! It started raining here yesterday and hasn’t stopped so it truly feels like fall. However, when my daughter and I did our September grocery haul this past Tuesday, it still felt like summer. It was in the mid-90s! A lot can change in a few days.   Disclosure: This post contains affiliate…

My daughter and I did one of our big grocery shopping trips last Friday. I had an event to attend that evening so we got an earlier start and tried to stay focused. We completed our lists, had a nice lunch and even worked in an ice cream stop before heading home. Here’s what my…
