Jeanine Machan

I will only purchase the items on my grocery list and avoid impulse purchases.

I will purchase produce and meat directly from a local farmers market and make 1 meals.

I will buy locally grown food from my grocery store and make 3 meal(s).

I will sign up for Fridge Check Friday emails, sent by Hennepin County but open to everyone, to prompt me to check my fridge for food that needs to be used up and for hacks on storing food to keep it fresh.

I will set aside time to prepare meals in advance.

I will resist impulse buys by eating a snack or meal before going grocery shopping. Those who grocery shop on an empty stomach spend 64% more than not-hungry shoppers.
