The start of my journey in becoming debt free :)

I saved money on groceries by accident when I started dieting. But the principal can apply to skinnies too.
I have four adults in my house as the kids are grown up. The boys are both over 6 foot and take some feeding.
Instead of huge grocery bills, I plan every meal and only buy those ingredients that I need. We all eat the same meal every night. I buy online from Tesco as I find it stops temptation for both dietary and financial reasons.
I shop for fruit and veg at the grocers and meat at the butchers. I know you don't get the offers you do in Supermarkets but I think you get better quality and it goes further.
Check your cupboards before you shop. Don't overbuy on cleaning or toiletries.
My grocery bill has gone from over £500 to £275 a month and we are eating better.
