Saving overall

Submitted by Miranda on April 2, 2008 - 09:23.

Interesting, even though I pay more per item at the local grocery and local organic store, my bill has dropped overall. Why? Because when I'm not shopping at a mega-store (Wal-Mart), I don't get all the impulse buys and my family isn't tempted by the "good deals." Plus we buy much less junk food, and that helps lower our overall grocery bill as well.
