I'm Currently Feeling:  | How often do you go food shopping?
I go properly every 2 weeks but i always have to top up in between twice with bread and milk...
I want to get into the routine of going shopping once a monthas thats when i get paid but i just cant think how that would work? The fruit and veg would go manky...any do shops every month?? | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I do a monthly shop with tesco on my payday every month for all my frozen/cupboard/lunchbox stuff and big things and fruit and veg for that week.
I then have to do little top up ones weekly for the fresh stuff and milk and bread daily.
I do the monthly cos i dont drive and tesco is about an hour away.
I do the top ups at morrisons and get a bus home cos i live up a biggggggggggg hill.
Oh and get this...the isle of wight doesnt have an Asda!!!!! ARGHH |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I didn't realise there was no Asda there! Gutted!
We go every Saturday and top up with bread and milk as we need it. Probably be too often, but theres only two of us and I worry that stuff will go off. Also don't like the thought of planning our meals a month in advance.

I'm Currently Feeling:  | We shop once a month. We get paid twice a month but the second paycheck goes towards rent and student loans........so no leftover for grocery shopping. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I go grocery shopping once every 2 weeks...sometimes i can stretch it to 3 weeks but i don't know how i could manage to stretch the food for a month (DH would be "starving" as he's not that creative to pull random things to make a meal...). |
