As you may know, I’ve been a fan of E-Mealz for the last few years, and have partnered with them as an affiliate. I wanted to let you know about something new that they are offering, and give you an opportunity to enter to win a 3 month free membership.
E-Mealz is a menu planning website that takes the guesswork out of planning your families weekly meals. You chose the plan that you want from a choice of 28 E-Mealz dinner menu plans. For example, you might chose a Regular Family Menu from stores such as Publix, Wal-Mart, or Aldi. Or if you want a more specialized diet, you might select a Low Carb or Low Fat option. What I’m most excited about is that since I’ve been using E-Mealz, they’ve added other more specialized options such as Gluten Free, Vegetarian, and even Natural & Organic!
The menu plan that I’ve used most successfully has been the Family Menu/Low Carb using the “any store” selection. This works well for me since I split the majority of my grocery shopping between Publix and Wal-Mart. (And a great way to decide is to see a sample from each.)
Once you choose a plan, you download and print your menu and shopping list and then you can take that two hours or so that you just saved and paint your nails. Or whathaveyou. As a bonus, the complete grocery list is organized by store sections (which includes side dishes all on one page). E-Mealz speaks my organizing love language.
I love having the guesswork taken out of meal planning. And by saving myself from frequenting the grocery store for last minute items, I know I’m also saving my grocery budget. Each plan will also give you an approximate weekly average cost for the recommended dinners.
Over time I’ve amassed a good number of downloaded menus so that I can easily work in a special favorite meal if a substitute is needed.

I want to win! I need this badly. My husband will thank you!
Low carb-any store. But the sample lists a meal with corn as the side..not very low carb.
Probably regular for either Wal Mart or any store (stores from up north not on their list!). I might dabble in the low carb, but no one else in my family would eat these!!
I think I would try the Aldi’s one. I have a friend that used emealz for a while. She loved it and it really helped her in the kitchen.
I need to try this – my grocery bill is out of control.
I would trim the budget and our waist with the low-fat Walmart menu.
I think I would choose the regular family meal plan, Walmart or any other store… this could be a great money & time saver! I could then take the regular recipes and tweak anything in them to make them a tad healthier… or leave them as is. Fantastic idea! Come on, draw my number!
I would chose the regular family meal plan for any other store since none of the stores listed are in my area, (except Wal-mart and we won’t shop there). I love that it plans side dishes as well as the main meal which is where I struggle most.
I love the Publix low-fat meals. We’ve been using them for two weeks now and my son has eaten more of this than anything else I’ve tried!
Not that he needs low fat, but his Momma sure does! 
I would try the regular plan at Aldi. This seems to be a real time saver, which I need desperately. I work full time and come home to cook for a family of five.
I’d probably go with the family meals from Kroger, even though my region is not included. The Walmart low-carb one has things that we will not eat. At all.
I would probably go with the Natural and Organic one, but not the Whole Foods one. I adore Whole Foods but I would go broke if I actually shopped for our family of seven there! LOL
I’d probably go with the Low-fat Family Meal or the Portion Control meal plan.
I would use the regular plan for Publix.
I would probably try the regular plan for Walmart. Looks doable, even for me!
I would probably do the regular family (no specific store) plan, again. I used e-mealz two years ago and have been thinking I need to get back on it, so if I don’t win I’ll probably sign up anyway!
(I hope this doesn’t post twice; the site gave me an error when I tried the first time!)
I’m so excited for their new Whole Foods one! That’s what I want! Thanks.
I have wanted to try E-Mealz but just never have followed through on it. I would select the regular meal plan at Aldi’s. I have recently started working on our household budget so this would probably be a good time to implement E-Mealz. I already love shopping at Aldi’s.
I would probably pick low-carb at any store. I menu plan every week, but this sounds way easier. I’d love to give it a try.
I would like to do the Aldi menu plan. I love most of Aldi’s food and all of Aldi’s prices!
This looks awesome! I think I may join even if I don’t win. I would pick the Regular Family Menus from Walmart. I don’t love to shop at Walmart, but none of our other grocery stores are listed. If I go in with a plan, it won’t be so bad to go there!
I would like the Regular Any Store. Too bad they don’t have Safeway.
I wish I could choose the Whole Foods plan but my area doesn’t have that store. So I would choose low fat at Publix.
I would love to win this – I would use the Regular – Walmart menu, or the Low-Fat – Walmart menu!
Regular Menus for 2 – Any Store
I don’t mind cooking, but I HATE having to come up with ideas of what to fix. This could really help.
I’d use the Specialty for 3-6 under “Any other store”, since I’m from up North also. Plus we have a BIG family – 3 adults, 4 kids, and one grandbaby. Lotsa mouths to feed. (sigh)
low fat publix looks like a winner =)
