I am lucky enough to be able to food shopping every Thursday morning. And, if we can help it, we try to only go on Thursday mornings, so that means trying to get everything we need for the week in that trip. Admittedly, sometimes I forget things, or we run out of cookies and have to make a quick stop back, but we’ll avoid that if possible!
One thing I learned early was the importance of meal planning especially with a young busy family. It was important to me to have healthy meals and snacks available even if I was transporting them to the next activity. Eating in the car was common. It was also helpful in keeping the grocery bill sustainable.
