Cost Saving Ideas -- Part 3


If you are not favorable to the idea of a garden, don’t have a place to do it, or just don’t want to put in the time and effort there is another alternative: PLAN ahead.  That’s right!  Plan out your meals: what you will eat for the month.  If a month is too daunting, start with a week.  Then take your menu and use it to make a grocery list.  Don’t deviate from it and you’ll meet your budget.  

Need ideas for a menu?  Try making each day of the week a different theme, for example: Sundays are casseroles, Mondays are soups, Tuesdays are grill, Wednesday are ethnic, Thursday are breakfast foods, Fridays are crock pot, and Saturdays are leftovers or quick fix things.
