Can someone tell me why groceries are so expensive? Here I am on a shopping cleanse, trying to apply my need-only rules to grocery shopping and jesus christmas .. when did groceries become worth their weight in gold? I did a decent job of sticking to yesterday's shopping list - only added a few things: tomato juice (S&S brand!), special K bars (buy one get one free), yesterdays bagels ($1), wraps (so chris doesn't always have to buy them), peas (healthy & only $1) & low fat cheese. That, plus everything on the list -- which was a SHORT LIST -- racked up almost a $50 bill! What the...
Today should be an easy day - just heading to the gym & then to work so temptation shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Although I should probably put back all the cute tops I have hanging on my desk, just begging me to buy them... but I don't want anyone else to buy them! Then again, in three months I probably won't even want them anymore. So.. bye bye pretty clothes.. wah.
