Challenge One - The List part 2

Once we had everything listed from our menu for our list.  We separated them into categories, then we looked at the stores and we had some forethought in this.  For example, we knew that we could get ketchup at Walmart less expensive than Kroger or that we could get tortillas less at HEB.  Just a little research and the stores do have different prices such as Walmart has roll back prices. 

We have made our list and we are ready to go shopping.  We took our entire list,
Our girls are older so when taken them all with us they are not as much of a distraction.  I usually send them to get other things don't be in a rush, take your time. 
My oldest daughter and I decided to go late at night.  We went to Walmart then to Kroger.  The stores were not busy and we were able to take our time and browse around.  The people that were stocking the shelves were very helpful if we could not find something. 

Suggestion:  Only buy what you have on the list unless you find an unbelievable price on something.  Write down the prices on the list even if you did not get it.
