Here’s our top 3 tips to staying on budget when you’re trying to do the family shop with the kids:
1. There’s no need to go crazy. Stick to your meal plan and shopping list. It’s easy to get distracted when everything is cheap. Shopping weekly means you are in control.
2. Use your phone to do a quick check to see if you can find the product you want cheaper. Is what you’re buying really good value for money?
3. Downshifting can still work even if your family are vegan. Start by buying the supermarkets own brand and go up the brand by brand depending on taste.
We have our favorite vegan breakfast go-tos. (We aren’t vegan but we love them!) These can all be made on a budget and brought from discounters.
1. Rolled oats – Whatever nut you like join it with your milk substitute and add maple. We add whatever fruit is close to going off for the extra sweetness or frozen fruit.
2. Breakfast fried rice is fab and can be made into leftovers. We cook ours with coconut oil and add onions, nuts and honey. We make ours sweet but I’m sure it would work as a savoury dish too.
3. Quinoa is perfect for days that you’re in a rush. We batch cook ours so we can grab it quickly. We add soya milk (but any alternative milk works) and then go crazy with the cinnamon tub or lemon bottle.
Using those kitchen staples can really help bring down the cost of your weekly shop. Spices, grains and coconut oil last a long time and are very inexpensive.
