I noticed a big savings in my food budget during the first couple months of lockdown because I ate every single meal at home.  I did more food prep and, because I was eating in all the time, nothing went to waste since I had a good idea of what needed to be eaten when.  Now that we’re allowed to go out again, it’s back to making a huge dent in my budget. Time to get back to meals at home!

To help your family’s food budget, try eating in for most of your meals. Plan and prep as much as you can in advance. You’ll spend less, there’s less food waste, and it actually saves you time and energy trying to figure out what’s for dinner!
