We have significant food restrictions so sourcing our own is helpful health-wise & cost-effective too.

We have several food intolerances/needs so cooking is just mostly easier/cheaper.

– Food: groceries, meals out, school lunches. How to Watch Great TV without Cable – We were able to cut $50/month by giving up cable, yet we still watch great TV. If they are, you can consider putting the extra funds into an emergency fund, pay off a credit card, or save for another financial goal.

I watched her and her husband’s debt free scream on The Dave Ramsey Show. We started making our own bread, pancake mix, hot chocolate mix, “Swiffer” dusting clothes, lunch snacks (cookies and muffins), bread crumbs, pizza crust, etc. Shop with a list, and not just for food. Meet Angela.
