Looking to save money on groceries ?
A weekly budget can help you stay on top of spending.
You still need to have the right technique. Our little trick should help you.
It is easy to be tempted by frivolous purchases in supermarkets.
Especially if you go shopping with the kids...
Or that you forget to look down the shelves to find the best prices.
Results ? The budget explodes and you can quickly find yourself in the red. Have you been there before?
So for all those who are easily tempted like me, the best thing is to make a running budget at the beginning of each month.
Establish a budget based on your habits and the different budget items:food, household products, toiletries and beauty products.
Then calculate how much cash you can spend per week on shopping.
And place this sum in an envelope .
As soon as the envelope is empty, presto! we stop spending.
You see, it's as simple as that.
I have been using this technique for several years and since then I have not ruined myself at the supermarket.
Even if it's not easy at first, the goal is obviously to go shopping every week with this amount and stick to it.
I advise you to learn how to use this method of envelopes by reading our article on the subject here.
