Continually eating out hampers our ability to build our financial future. How do you avoid reaching for your phone and ordering from food delivery services like DoorDash, and GrubHub when it brings so much fulfillment and joy?

Ways to Get Your Food Spending Under Control

Create a spending journal to track the frequency and total dollar amount you spend each week
Set a fixed dollar amount for eating out each month
Budget a dollar amount to spend each month on groceries bought from the supermarket
Shop at discount grocery stores
Prepare most of your meals yourself at home

If you don't enjoy cooking, consider using meal kit services such as;

CookUnity
EveryPlate
Factor 75
Freshly
Gobble
Tovala

Depending on your situation and how entrenched you are in food overspending, you must decide the measures you need to take. If not, you will continue throwing your money away on food that only gives you a temporary good feeling but is damaging your finances and health. I'm not here to judge, but I am here to tell you the truth. We all need to hear it. Get out there and make a change!
