I saw that same article about grocery budgeting and while it made me feel less alone, it's outrageous! I've also started shopping around more than in the past and building our meal plan around coupons or shopping our freezer/pantry first. I usually check coupons at Kroger, Walmart, and Publix then build a pickup list to see what works out to be cheapest. We generally don't get charged fees for the pickup in my area.
