One of the simplest ways to save money (especially if you love bread as much as I do) is to home-make your bread rather than buying it at the store. A loaf of bread from the bakery at the grocery store costs at least $2. If you’re worried about it taking too much time, a bread machine is your best friend.

I would like to ask, how do you freeze cinnamon bread? If you have a smaller household, you could cut the loaf in half and freeze each half separately; that way you can just get out half a loaf when you want some cinnamon bread. Also, you can slice the bread up before freezing it; that makes it very easy to grab just a slice or two.
