*The Dave Ramsey 'Baby Steps' Thread*

[Tygerlilly]

I am really behind on the podcasts, but I was listening to ~October 7th today. The debt-free scream in hour two was a California couple who paid off $412k in 28 months. I forget what he did, but she was a nurse. They are a family of eight plus a Great Dane.

They spent $1200/month for groceries.

If they can do that in CA with that group while maintaining some sense of nutritional balance (assumption from her career), then how is $700 for two people cutting back?

We just spent a week in Houston, TX and I can't believe how much cheaper food was there vs where we are in Oklahoma. I seriously wanted to load our cooler up on the way home and bring back stuff. Lol. HEB may be my new favorite store.
