Making a Start

Well here I am ready to take on the challenge. 5 days left to plan and then we're ready to start the $100 a week food challenge.

I don't know if excited is the word for how I feel about spending so little at the grocery store but I am excited to see how much we can save in the first month.

Looking at our previous shopping receipts it's pretty evident that we have been completely overspending and to be honest the amount of food that gets thrown out (apparently 20% of everyone's groceries are discarded) makes me wonder how much money is going in the rubbish.

I'll be using the blog to post meal planners, recipes and tips I find along the way. Wish us luck!!

And here we go...
