Grocery Budget: $60 average continues
Continuing our #unsponsored review of Aldi shopping for the month. We've been able to stick to a $60 average budget for our food -- and that cuts nearly $200 off what we HAD been spending. Major savings, all while eating some good food. Sample dinners are also featured in this post.
