Over the course of the last year and a half of providing $50 weekly menu plans, many guests and members have written in expressing frustration that didn't feel it was possible in their areas. We wholeheartedly agree that some areas are more difficult than others and with that in mind, would like to provide extra assistance to those folks who are diligently trying to reduce their grocery bill.
With that in mind, each week we will choose a zip code that has been submitted by a member and provide a $50 menu plan from the weekly sales flyers that are available online in the stores in those areas, as well as any tips, ideas and suggestions for additional ways to save money in those particular localities.
Would you like some Help?
If you'd like to see your zip code featured, please feel free to comment below and include ALL of the following:1. A Typical Menu Plan for 1 week that includes breakfast, lunch and dinner
Without seeing what you're currently eating each week we cannot determine where you need to make cuts/changes in order to save money, nor can we design a menu plan that will work for your family, (nor will we try).
2. Your Zip Code
3. Include the Names of 3 Stores in your Area you frequently shop for groceries.
The more information you can provide, the more assistance we can offer. Failure to include your current menu plan will result in your request being skipped.
