Shopping should not take this much thinking. The Everyday Grocery Planner gives you nine ready-to-use pages that turn a scrappy list into a quicker, cheaper trip. Print them. Type on them. Or do both.
What is inside
- Simple List, 2 columns: wide lines for everyday shopping.
- Simple List, 3 columns: more room for short items.
- Smart List: quantity and price columns, plus boxes for your estimated total, your budget and what is left.
- Category List: ten sections, so you shop aisle by aisle and stop doubling back.
- Meal Plan + Shopping List: a week of breakfasts, lunches and dinners with a list right beside it.
- Kitchen Staples Checklist: 53 pantry, fridge and freezer basics to tick off.
- Household Staples Checklist: 40 cleaning, bathroom, family and pet items people always forget.
- Monthly Budget Tracker: log every shop, planned against actual.
- Price Comparison Sheet: find the cheapest store for the things you buy every week.
Four sizes, two looks, one download
Every page comes in A4, US Letter, A5 and Half Letter. Each size has a soft green colour version and an ink-saver black and white version. Side margins are wide, so a hole punch will not eat your writing.
Fillable PDFs included
Would you rather type? Every page also comes as a fillable PDF. Click a line and type. Click a box to tick it. Bookmarks help you jump to any page. Save a copy each week and keep a clean master.
Bonus: Excel Budget Tracker
Log what you spend and the dashboard does the rest. You get a month picker, budget and spent tiles, a progress bar, spending by category, spending by week and two charts. The log has room for 300 entries, with dropdown categories you can rename. Totals and differences work themselves out.
Step-by-step user guide
A 20-page Word guide explains every page, how to print at the right size, how to use the fillable files and the Excel tracker, plus troubleshooting and answers to common questions.
