Traditionally, in many cultures, women have been responsible for household budgets because they handled day-to-day expenses and grocery shopping.

‎Giving them practical experience and a sense of economic control within the household.

‎So join me today as I reinforce my role in purchasing decisions related to nutrition and household needs.

‎The store's atmosphere was bustling yet orderly as I stepped into the grocery store.

My mission?

‎Stick to the list.

‎With a keen eye on our family's budget, I navigated the aisles with purpose.

‎Picking up only the essentials.

Lean proteins, condiments, and canned goods made their way into my cart.

Each item was carefully selected to nourish my loved ones without breaking the bank.

‎I resisted the temptation of impulse buys, reminding myself that every peso counts.

‎With a satisfied smile, I checked off each item on my list as I collected them.

‎At the checkout, I felt a sense of accomplishment, knowing I'd stayed on track and would be able to stretch our budget further.

After that, we headed home, feeling proud of my responsible shopping trip.

How about you? What's your go-to strategy for keeping food costs in check? Got any budgeting tips to share?

‎Until my next shopping journey... Buh-bye. 👋😍

Sticking to the list is never easy, especially when there's just so many items that are eye-catching. I commend you.

Haha. Thank you. Yeah. Actually, I think it's easy if you bring a specific amount of money. In that case, you'll just buy what's needed. 😅

Yeah, that works... but sometimes we need a little fun shopping, eh? 😅

That's always what happens. 😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol

Haha, I know how hard this one is, you really need to convince yourself firmly parang di ma over the budget, haha.

Yeah. Yung makita mo yung item na gustong gusto mo, pero wala sa lista, aygoo... Oh tukso, layuan mo ako 😂

Hahaha, mapapakanta ka na lang ag ano, haha. Iyak kasi di pasok sa budget
