Shopping

I am always amazed at the reaction I get when I tell people that I go to Whole Foods and shop. They give me that evil "you are so extravagant look...:) and say "wow, that is expensive" Yes, it can be if you shop in the middle isle and buy all the expensive imported sauces and chocolates. If you buy the produce on sale like I do you get a good deal and the most excellent produce. I can not tell you how many mealy tasteless apples I have bought this year and I never get that at Whole Foods. Yes, I do sometimes spend maybe 1 dollar more for apples in total (not per pound) and sometimes not and sometimes they are cheaper then the local grocery store. I shop all over as well. I go to Sunflower market and the local farmers markets when I have a empty Sat morning and yes the grocery store and Costco!

Let me ask if you are shaking your head thinking "Cheryl, a dollar is a dollar and im not going to spend 1 dollar more for apples" well....Look at what you do spend more on. Starbucks? etc Fast food, candy, ice cream and eating out?

I had to take a look at that over a year ago when I first started eating whole organic and yes expensive food. My health is worth a extra dollar and boy do I enjoy that wonderful crispy juicy apple...:) Its not just apples now.. Its everything I eat. I look for the very best for my money yummy coffee beans and organic blue agave syrup and organic half and half etc.....Eat well and live big!
