meal plan/ grocery shopping q

I am making my meal plan for next week and started wondering about other people meal plan. When do you set aside time for meal planning? Is it the same day every week or different? How many weeks do you plan? 1, 2, etc? Do you grocery shop every week on the same day or does it rotate?

I sometimes plan 2 weeks out. Other times just 1. It is never the same day. I go shopping every week, but usually only buy meats 2 times a month.

My mom would plan meals and make her list every Wednesday night and shop every Thursday night for the most part. I am wondering if her way is better.

I am overwhelmed this week because of planning the party menu and our menu for home. Lack of sleep from Abby being up for 3 hours last night from 2:30-5:30 isn't helping either. Maybe once her party is over it won't be so crazy.

  • What is this planning thing you speak of?

    Joy says she plans about a week out.

  • I don't meal plan so I am not help.  If I did, I would do it weekly and before I went shopping.  
  • I have no time to meal plan right now and since I have a stay at home hubby it is his job.
  • I plan 1 week at a time. I make my list during the week, as in I write things down as I run out of them. Sometime over the weekend I actually sit down and figure meal ideas and refine my list. Monday mornings are my grocery shopping day. I picked Mondays because that is payday for P.

  • I usually plan a week out, and my mom and I go shopping on Saturdays. J is such a picky eater that I usually let him do some of the planning. I can't wait to do it on our own though...
