Anyway, for sim lab, we break into groups and we go in to take care of the Manikin or the actor, and our professors watch us on the video monitors to see how we do (and so do the student groups that aren’t currently taking a turn.) Do you have any insight into why that would be? DM Wow, I am impressed by your dedication to this task!

Lean into cheap meals. Avoid meals that require pricier ingredients , and lean into budget-friendly meals. If I wanted to save money quickly, I could probably get that down to about $300 by focusing on cheap meals. Dining out, fast food drive-throughs, and Starbucks all have to stop. I encourage you to do this.

Chances are, you already have more than enough for several meals. Consistently using things you already have not only saves money but also prevents food waste. Throwing food away is throwing money away ! Meal planning is not for me. In fact, I recommend food prepping over meal prepping. Have a plan.

Airbnb is a fantastic option, especially if you want to cook some of your own meals, as most of them come stocked with the basics for cooking. A complimentary breakfast is the easiest way to spend zero dollars on one meal daily. For example, when renting cabins, we spend most of the time there and cook most of our meals.

Limiting waste is what really drives most of the habits I have that would qualify as “frugal” – reducing/eliminating food waste, returning unneeded items, pursuing refunds, checking on warranties, repairing things, etc. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love.

We’ll be purchasing everything except for the turkey in bulk (brussell sprouts, potatoes, cranberry sauce or fresh cranberries, bread for stuffing, etc) and then dividing it so that none goes to waste. This allows us to cash in on the savings without watching our money go in the garbage by food waste. Cutting Down.
