Quotes to ponder:
"Our grocery budget seemed like it was getting out of control when we went vegan. It spiked from just $200 to almost $400."
"We already planned our meals and made our list. If we leave it off the list and forget to buy it on our shopping days then we never needed it in the first place."
"Having basic items in our pantry lets us be creative with what we buy in the grocery store because we don’t need a whole lot of everything."
