Day by day, in detail
Day 1🎬 ✍️ Watch Christine's grocery strategy and pick your first move +1⌄
✍️ Set your baseline and your target — right now
✍️ Before any hacks: what do you honestly think you spend on food per week — groceries, snacks, takeout, coffee runs, all of it? Write your best guess. Then set a target for this week, and name the ONE tactic from Christine's strategy you'll use on your very next food purchase.
Day 2🎬 📓 See what tracking 30 days of hauls reveals, then start yours +1⌄
🎬 See what tracking 30 days of hauls reveals, then start yours
📓 Open your food-dollar tracker
📓 Christine tracked every single haul for 30 days — you're doing it for the rest of this week. Every time money leaves your pocket for food or drink, log it here within the hour: the grocery run, the drive-thru, the vending machine. No judging, no rounding down. What gets written down gets cheaper.
Day 3🎬 ✅ Steal the unsexy hacks that actually save thousands +1⌄
🎬 Steal the unsexy hacks that actually save thousands
✅ Put 3 hacks on your board — and run one today
- I picked the 3 unsexy hacks from the video that fit my real life
- I did one of them today — not someday, today
- I estimated what each hack saves me per month and wrote the number next to it
- I logged every food purchase I made today in my tracker
Day 4🎬 ✅ Watch the pantry-only week, then raid your own shelves +1⌄
🎬 Watch the pantry-only week, then raid your own shelves
✅ Take pantry inventory and plan 3 no-shop meals
- I opened my pantry, fridge and freezer and listed everything I forgot I had
- I flagged the items closest to expiring — those go first
- I planned 3 meals for the next 3 days using ONLY what I already own
- I cooked or prepped the first pantry meal today
Day 5🎬 🔁 Find out what's no longer worth your money +1⌄
🎬 Find out what's no longer worth your money
🔁 Keep the streak: track everything, eat from the pantry
🔁 I logged every food dollar I spent today and ate at least one meal straight from my pantry plan
Day 6✍️ Read your tracker and write your own money rules⌄
✍️ Read your tracker and write your own money rules
✍️ Open your tracker and read every entry from this week. Where does the money actually leak — impulse buys, one store, one time of day? Compare the total against the target you set on day 1. Then write 3 personal grocery rules you'll keep after this bootcamp, Christine-style: short, specific, slightly unsexy.
Day 7🎯 Final mission: the strategic shop + your stop-buying list⌄
🎯 Final mission: the strategic shop + your stop-buying list
🎯 Do one grocery run today with a written list and a dollar cap — and come home under it.
This is the whole bootcamp in one trip. Before you go: write your list from your pantry gaps (not your cravings), set a hard dollar cap below your old normal, and pick which of your 3 rules ride along. In the store, every item earns its spot or stays on the shelf. When you're back, write your personal stop-buying list — the 10 things you're officially done spending money on — and post your proof: the cap, the receipt total, and the list. That's money back in your pocket every single week from now on. 💪
