Budget Time
If you’re like the rest of us
you’re examining , your budget
about now and looking for ways
■to make it stretch.
Since food consumed takes
from one-quarter (for two people)
to almost a hylf (for four) of
the average wage- earner’s in
come, it seems like a worthwhile
consideration when planning for
a more strict budget.
afford to scrimp on food but
there are ways to cut
necessary expense.
Price Considered
We’ve found that we pretty
well get what we pay for in food
stuffs. Standard brands are true
to form and we’ve run into dif
ficulty with the lesser - known,

cheaper brands, if not in quality,
in quantity. Figure it out by
price-per-punce and you'll see
that nationally advertised brands
are ahead budgetwise. Legitimate
bargains are usually well adver
tised by the merchant concerned.
The old idea that you have to
spend to save is true where non-
perishable foods are concerned.
Where you can use larger quanti
ties without waste, try to make
the investment—it pays over a
long period. Here you can again
calculate a price-per-ounee sav
ing.
Watch Receipts
Right now, we’re trying a
month-by-month picture of food
consumption. This entails keep
ing every receipt and itemizing
the cash-register bills as they
come in with the groceries. It
also means we need a pretty
clear picture of how these foods
are consumed.
Weekly menus help here. This,
by the way, is perhaps the most
convenient plan we’ve run across
in housekeeping systems, These
must be flexible enough to in
clude an extra person or make
allowances for a

be a
snacks
Wider
With this wider picture,
hope to be able to find just
where we are unnecessarily ex
travagant, where we can elimin
ate waste and how we can trim
the budget without lowering our
standard of eating—even with a
hope we might be able to add a
few extras.
(We might add that the plan
ned weekly menu idea also makes
for more balanced meals, nutri
tionally, during the day, more
variety and fewer left-overs.)
l£ you feel you haven't time
for bookwork and planning, you
may rest easy on that score. We
have found it takes about five
minutes to itemize a grocery
list—a long one. After a bit of
practice, it takes about 15 min
utes to draw up a menu for the
week...
Saves Time
We save those 15 minutes
when it comes to our big grocery
list of the week because we can
look over the menu and know
precisely

up those
exposed
shelves.
When
work is completed, we may take
a quiet evening to put our find
ings together but if we can plug
the loopholes and plan a more
sound spending schedule for the
next month we certainly won’t
begrudge that evening’s work.
