The grocery store can be a scary place when you are on a budget or watching your diet. So, I went armed: I had my list of things to pick up at the store and how much I could spend. 


I find that I eat less if I have less. So, I just purchased one week’s groceries. I had to forego a couple things, but they had fresh fish and juice on sale so it all worked out.
