“Momma, we’re hungry,” is a common phrase popping out of my kiddos through out the day.  If I’m not on top of our groceries, I’m stuck getting creative with the beans’ can and leftovers from the night before.  If you know my cooking abilities…you’d feel the concern my family might have if these were our only food options.  

Solution: Each week on Sunday or Wednesday, depending on our family needs, I put on my favorite slouchy, (not my hubby’s favorite) sweatpants, cuddle on the couch with both my son and daughter to a 30-60 minute family or educational show while ordering our weekly grocery list from the comfort of our living room. 

Tips and Tricks: The platform I use allows me to choose delivery or pick up options.  I’ve learned if I can be flexible on times and methods I can save money on this weekly convenience while getting 5% off my total order!  Groceries in sweat pants has been beneficial to our family and friendly to our budget.  I typically plan to purchase our weekly groceries 2-3 days prior to needing them.  This method allows me to snatch up the discounts being offered on delivery (typically covering driver’s tip) allowing me to benefit from finding my groceries on my doorstep (while in sweat pants).  Specials…are ran each month at different times.  If you’re a member, specials pop up for $5 off or more at different times.

Love It!  Ordering groceries and intentionally meal planning has saved our family time and money.  Utilizing online ordering (even if I order and pick it up), I enjoy comparing prices with a click of a button and family time on the couch rather than keeping my kiddos in check while navigating grocery isles.  It’s been a GAME CHANGER for our family.
