I made a simple price list for items we buy often. Now I know what a good price is for eggs, rice, chicken, yogurt and detergent. It makes sales easier to judge.
Repeating meals helped more than fancy budgeting. We do the same 6 or 7 dinners most weeks, and that stops random ingredients from dying in the fridge.
