The next step that you should do is to plan for your grocery trip. The one method that I use is to create a dinner menu based on how you go grocery shopping. Because I only buy groceries every two weeks my dinner menu is planned for a two week period. This can be done either by paper or on the computer. I typically use excel to create my menu. This is the starting point of making my grocery list. If you are one that is at home for breakfast and lunch you can create those menus as well. Once the menus are complete I start my grocery list based on what is on the menu.
I will then add other items that I need or items that are on sale and I have coupons for that I want to stock up on.
In my next post will be information on how to check for deals and what you can do to plan ahead.
Stay tuned......
