My overall food budget is greatly reduced! Have to say bringing lunch and eating at home for dinner really cuts back on expenses.

The best thing is that I actually eat the food I buy now. I used to be terrible and buying food, sticking it in the fridge and throwing it all away 2 weeks later! I never ate at home before. I can't even tell you how many grocercies wasted away in my fridge! Now you can actually see the food in there and it gets eaten! It was really weird to have to take out the trash, recycle bottles/cans more than once a week!

I am spending more on dishwasher detergent and dish soap though, HAHA!
