See, your post has unwittingly changed my life.
I never did meal planning before. It just seemed so restrictive.
Partly because I change my mind all time with impulse purchases, living nearby foodie shops. My lifestyle is always too chaotic, because some days I just end up eating out with friends or eating at their house. And I always forget to defrost in time.
But I tried in the past few weeks. Saving so much money was awesome!!!!
