I know but I don’t know 🤦🏻‍♀️

I created a master list of every food I like to have in the house. Once a week I print the list and cross out everything I don't need. I then review the local grocery flyers and make notes of who has the best deals on which items. I also go through the online coupons to see if there are any matches.

This method keeps my pantry easily stocked and helps me save a good bit of money.

If I know what TO eat and what NOT to eat, what’s better etc etc .. why don’t I ever know what to buy at the grocery store?! Do you guys just buy random healthy things you like? Do you think of meals you want to eat & buy from that? I don’t know why it’s so hard to get started when I know what to eat and what not to eat!

Hi dawn__westbury, I have never experienced your dilema but you are not alone. I have friends who struggles with this as well. Just like some have suggested in comments above, I will recommend sitting down with your 16yr old and make a list of what you would like to eat for the week. Break it down by days/meals (breakfast/lunch/dinner). Also include snacks as well. Better yet Walmart emeals can also help you plan better. There's a cost and it's very less expensive. You can do a 14day free trial and see if its for you. Here's the link below. Good luck!
