Budgeting

so i learned a few things about budgeting while watch the videos by Jordan Page. This includes eating what you have on hand and going to the store for only a few items or else getting creative. This applies not only for food but also for things like other "consumables" which includes medicine, cleaning products, baby needs such as formula and diapers etc. once my family and I went and spent about 40 dollars on a weeks worth of groceries with us eating what we had on hand and eating out 2x before getting emergency supplies on a Friday. If you have a huge stock of something that would last a while don't buy it. When i get low on my OTC medicine i get more. Another example is BOGO sales. let's say theres a BOGOF (buy one get one free). The sale might cost a little more up front but you'll have more than what you need NOW but in the long run it'll be easier to shop. Same with the buy as big as you can afford. Lets go back to the BOGOF. Let's say it's for a larger size of mouthwash for example but you get 2 large things of mouthwash or rice or whatever. If you get a large enough thing on sale you'll be walking away with items not only at a discount but whenever you change things like recycle the old case of whatever you bought like mouthwash you also don't have to run to the store and buy it.
