Simplifying your grocery shopping
A few years ago, my new years resolution was to only go food shopping every 6 weeks. I wanted to save time, save money and reduce my food and packaging waste. In the first year alone, we saved over $4,000, reduced our packaging waste by over 90% and saved over 2 working weeks of time!
In this short video I share some of the big ideas that have helped me reduce the amount of times I go to the supermarket. It took a bit of figuring out to get me to 6 weeks (and I go into the full details in my book) but the best place to begin is to start by skipping a trip to the supermarket, which is what this video is all about.
I've also put a few of my favourite resources down the bottom if you're keen to dive in a bit more!
