I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been very busy (so busy in fact that I didn't finish my daughter's birthday dress until just hours before her party!). I will be posting the information I share at the class I taught a couple of weeks ago in probably six different parts. This is the shortest section, but I still wanted to share!
Some tips I have learned over the years that help with
feeding a family on a budget are shopping sales, menu planning, preparing food
ahead, meatless meals and stretching the meat.
Shopping sales I always look at sales ads
before I go shopping. I have an approximate price in my head of what I will
spend on an item; therefore, I know if a sale price is a good price or not.
Some people will make price lists of items they purchase on a regular basis. I
know this is a good idea, but I haven’t taken the time to do that yet. I will
only buy what is on sale that week unless it is an absolute necessity. I have a
few brand loyalties, but other than those few things, it is open to what is
cheapest.
