Family Balance Sheet

NOVEMBER 12, 2014

Having a routine keeps me scheduled so that I don’t forget to prep something and end up tempted to eat out. By having a schedule and knowing what we usually eat, I can save money by buying many foods in bulk. Just be sure that your family will consume all of the food you purchase in bulk. Muffins & other baked goods.

Family Balance Sheet

JANUARY 28, 2022

When I don’t plan, I make multiple trips to the store, eat out too often, and most certainly blow our budget. Designate one night a week as “raid the fridge’ night to get rid of leftovers. Everyone’s plate might look different, but you’ll at least use up the leftovers and reduce the waste. You’ll be thankful later.

I use them regularly when we eat out at restaurants, and I will not shop at a department store without one, but grocery coupons are completely different for me. Designate one night a week as “raid the fridge’ night to get rid of leftovers. They seemed more time consuming than they were worth.

The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 22, 2024

I know I found The Frugal Girl through the Non-Consumer Advocate, and I’ve read nearly all the archives. And I am more conscious of eating leftovers and avoiding food waste. Even if we don’t end up using all the food we buy, it’s cheaper than eating out. Maybe four years? I make bone broth now!
