Our family fridge + freezer can only hold a week's worth
of food. It's a year old pre-loved unit previously owned
by friends. Back then, I couldn't get why they needed to
upgrade to something bigger. Ahh, the things you learn
when you actually use something. Let's just say we can't
have too much of anything. Extras just take up valuable
shelf space.
If I could only share one home/budget organizing tool
with you, it would definitely be our Grocery List. It's
been a lifesaver to us. No second guessing what needs
to be bought.
The Grocery List I'm sharing has a "classic" design.
It's a no frills black and white item. H can easily use
it as there's no eye candy involved.
The Grocery List is editable. If you can, arrange it
according to the layout of your supermarket. Remove
items that you don't buy. Add items that you can't do
The Grocery List can help you stay on budget. I do
a quick estimate of our total bill before we go shopping.
If I think we've gone over the budget, I put a question
mark or cross out back-ups. We use a calculator or
mentally compute while shopping. If there's a special,
we can add or remove something to accommodate it.
So far so good, we usually stay within budget +/- $10
when we use the Grocery List.

I hope this Grocery List will be as useful to you as it
has been for our family. I'd love to hear how it works
out for you.
* Oops, just caught myself there. This really is a
Grocery List LOL :)
