How not to go to the grocery store!
I avoid going to the grocery store on purpose.
You may ask Why?
It is a money trap!
Can you not go to the grocery store for
the whole month.
I know for some this may seem upsurd.It may help you become a better planner.
I am all about planning as it helps me
with my daily life.
In the month of October it should be easy.
Lots of baking of items for the family.
Yesterday my daughter and I made
apple muffins for breakfast.
We got oh what did you make?
It is a great treat for my family. As we
don't buy cereal from the store.
What we eat for breakfast I am usually
coming up with by making something.
Whether it be pancakes, waffles,
muffins, eggs, yogurt to name a few.
Let me inspire you to see what you
can make this month!

Here on our little island, we have a saying, "grow what you eat and eat what you grow." Saves a lot of monies and it's healthier.
October is certainly the month for baking!
But I think I would take up the challenge of not going to the supermarket for a whole month. Just by keeping a detailed list of menus, and what you have and how much you need to spend.
Thank you for the wise tip!
Blessings,

Thank you for your comment on my Vintage Homestead Emporium blog! So sweet of you!
I also pray that you have a wonderful harvest! Here in Colorado, nestled against the mountains, we are expecting frost very soon (we are overdue our typical frost date. We've been quickly harvesting the rest of our garden & storing.
You mentioned frugal ideas on your blog:
we have enjoyed making our own granola cereal & laundry soap. It's been great to do with my kids!
If you havn't already tried, I have them posted on my blog.
Thanks again for your encouragement and may the Lord bless you & your family as you embrace the treasures of homesteading!
In Him,
Malinda
