We have significant food restrictions so sourcing our own is helpful health-wise & cost-effective too. Used bookstores, fair trade products, and locally sourced food/baskets/pottery are favorites, in addition to monthly outings with my kids. There’s always been garage sales/flea markets, library, state parks, fishing.
