How to Make Homemade Chicken Stock on the Stove Top | Kitchen Economics Link-Up

Family Balance Sheet

Homemade chicken stock is an easy way to stretch your grocery dollar, especially when you buy your whole chicken at your buy price. My buy and stock-up price is.79/lb. I make chicken stock two ways, depending on how I intend to cook the chicken. When I roast a chicken, I make chicken stock in the crock pot. It cooks overnight and in the morning, your kitchen smells wonderful.

Is Extreme Couponing Possible at CVS?

Simply CVS

With the launch of the new TLC series Extreme Couponing my mind of course goes to CVS shopping. I didn't watch the show last night, but I had seen the pilot with Nathan Engles of We Use Coupons when it aired (I understand he will be on next week again).

New to Couponing? It Doesn't Have To Be Extreme

Family Balance Sheet

My humble coupon case: If you are new to couponing or even the subject of saving money on groceries, watching TV shows, like Extreme Couponing on TLC, can be overwhelming or intimidating. I guess it is possible to buy hundreds or even thousands of dollars worth of groceries for pocket change, but nobody needs 62 bottles of mustard.or 70 containers of detergent.or 40 boxes of sugary cereals.
