Monthly Grocery Shopping– November 2019

November 12, 2019 by Stephanie 1 Comment

November’s grocery haul was a little different than normal.  Usually I shop according to what we’re running low on in the fridge and pantry, but this shopping trip included some convenience foods we usually don’t buy.  I made an exception since we have a baby that’s due in a week.

We still have some homemade freezer meals that I made a couple of months ago, but I’m not having another big freezer meal session before the baby comes because I have a big project that I’m working on right now.

I haven’t mentioned my big project yet, as it’s on the ambitious side considering I have a new baby arriving any day, but starting on December 1st I’m going to have a daily series called Frugal Festivities: 25 Days of Christmas Cheer on a Budget, both here on my blog and over on my YouTube channel.  I can’t wait to share it with you!! If you want to be notified when each post and video go live, just enter your email below!

Okay, back to November’s frugal family grocery haul!

As usual, you can either watch or listen to me go through everything we bought in the quick video below, or you can just check out the items and complete price list below the video.

    You’re getting so close! Definitely smart to stock up on some quick, convenient options—that saved me with my 2nd kid being born (and I can imagine that only compounds with each kid added). I wish you all the best in your upcoming labor and delivery, and I’m really excited about your December project! (Also, very, very impressed!)
