My wife and I are gearing up to start our debt pay off journey, where we will attempt to tackle $15k in CC/Loans in 2019.
With that said, per my research, we spend about 21% of our income on groceries/eating out and are hoping to cut that WAY down. I am aiming for $50 or less, per week, and only plan to eat out on SPECIAL occasions, maybe as little as once a month or less.
I have always HATED shopping at Wal-Mart, but their prices are so hard to beat. Now, with free grocery pickup, we are strongly considering doing all of our shopping there. With that said, there is literally an Aldis right across the street.
To those who shop at both, which do you prefer? Do you shop at one for some items and the other for other stuff? Why do you prefer one over the other? What are your go-to things to buy there?
I'll note that we understand the basics; buy in bulk during good sales, get frozen veggies, and meal prep. "Beans and rice, rice and beans" - Dave Ramsey
r/Frugal, what do you think! And Happy Holidays to you and your family!!
