Lisanne, she thought so, too, so went over it again. She has been buying basically the same things (I think most of us do) and that is what she came up with. She buys all her grocerys at walmart, because they are the least expensive. We don't have a great choice here. Walmart, Copps and to small locally owned grocerys. I can't wait for spring and planting our garden. Not huge, but we get a lot out of it and eat all those wonderful fresh veggies all summer and fall. I also will be canning more this year again. I used to do tons of it, but when the kids got on their own, i kinda cut back. I will start in June with strawberries (yummy jam) and go from there. The problem is that so many young people don't know how and don't have time with both parents working to make ends meet. I try to do enough for all of us. We are also very lucky to have an excellent apple orchard just a few miles away.
