Menu Planning is essential in saving your family money each month. The best plan for my family is a monthly calendar but you may want to start with weekly using your flyers. See what is on sale and make your menu around that and only buy what you need. This will save you money. This is how I do it for our house, now; remember that I have a Freezer full of meats, and a huge pantry so I can just shop at home. Really that is what you are trying to achieve yourself for your home. This month I spent $171.00 for the entire month for my family of 5 for all groceries.
