Onward to June's Food Spending report......
Here are my FOOD BUDGET spending totals for JUNE 2022.
I have posted June's totals on the Total Grocery Savings Page located HERE and have updated the Totals there.
I am listing subtotals for each store I purchased from in June. If you aren't interested in that much detail, just skip to the bottom for the Totals Sum. My spending includes Food, Toiletries/HBA, Cleaning Products, Paper Goods, Pet Food & tax where applicable. We are a family of 3(2-3 eating at home this month). No "kids" under 26.

LOOKING AHEAD To July 2022.......We'll continue to eat down from the freezer. Not much left in the pantry so I know I'm making inroads there. We'll be buying fresh produce/dairy as needed. I've got to ramp up the eating down as we are shooting to put the house on the market later this month.
If you have other ideas or guidelines you follow please leave a comment and share yours with us all.
* How much did you spend on food/toiletries in June?
* Do you track your yearly food spending? It's really not that hard or time consuming; just have your receipts and either track it in a notebook or on a spreadsheet.
* What was your savings percentage buying on sale and/or with coupons vs. buying at regular retail price last month, if you track that sort of thing?
* What are your methods for keeping your food spending in check?
Is anyone out there up for tracking expenditures and trying to spend less but still eat well?

I'm going to make a concentrated better effort to track our discretionary spending this month and next. I may not reach any savings, but need to better understand our true cost of living.
