Guest guest Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 We also live month to month on disability. Thankfully I knew how to do that while going through my divorce. I had to feed 5 people on food stamps and t.a.n.f. When it came to grocery shopping and being able to pay my bills. It was really hard. I learned the hard way. Then I worked 2 jobs for a while. Mr pain raised his ugly head and I became disabled. With one syndrome after another. Now I only have to feed 3 of us. I make out the menus for the week on Sundays. I always get the Sunday paper with coupons in it and all the sales papers.I look at what is on sale or if I had a coupon for it. then I go grocery shopping every Monday morning to get stuff for the week. I had to remind my hubby to stick to the list. He likes to bring home sweets.(good thing I am prepared for that too). When you have 4 growing boys you learn quickly how to budget. If there is something special they want. I budget for that too. Gentle hugs, Ms.Katurah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
