Hit $100 saved on groceries this month by meal prepping on Sundays

Honestly, meal prepping on a Sunday sounds like a total drag and honestly kinda defeats the purpose of saving time and money if you're stuck eating the same five meals all week. Tbh, those $100 in savings probably just get eaten up by the extra packaging and waste from buying bulk ingredients that go bad before you can use them all. Ngl, you'd be better off just buying fresh stuff daily and cooking when you actually feel like it instead of forcing yourself into a boring routine.

Yeah @milap35 I feel you on the waste part. Key is to freeze stuff in single servings so it doesn't go bad. I meal prep like 2-3 days worth not the whole week.
