Consider hosting a garage sale or listing items online to sell. Don’t forget to include important documents, chargers for your devices, and snacks or a small food kit to tide you over until you can do a proper grocery shop.

You no longer have to go to garage sales and flea markets to pick up these items. You can save a lot of money buying organic items at food co-ops and farmers markets. Secondhand products are often just as effective and as attractive as brand new items. Just visit sites like Ebay, Amazon, and Craigslist. This is simply not true.

We sold extra items that we weren’t using through Craigslist and garage sales. We ate at home a lot and watched our food budget carefully. We still allotted a lot of money for food, but we were careful not to go too far over budget. What are the top 3 – 5 ways you found money to put towards debt.

They kind of look like the ones for sale at Curious Country Creations. Plan ahead and hit garage sales, but especially estate sales. You can pick up beautiful decorations, wreaths, linens, trees and more at these sales. Heaven knows, not many of us lack for food or sustenance! These make nice gifts too.

Shop around at garage sales, thrift stores and online classifieds for furniture and other household items. Reduce convenience foods. Frozen foods, prepared foods and junk food are not only more expensive than something you cook yourself, but also less healthy. You can end up well ahead in the long run.

I also printed the food cards with clever food names (Galactic Grapes, Warrior Water, etc.). We used my son’s Boba Fett helmet to add a nice touch to the food table. Regular food is far more fun if you give it a cool Star Wars name. Food – $20.29. We used a black tablecloth ($0.90 for a 24 pk).

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.

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 shopped at garage sales, turned down the heat, combined errands to use less gas, didn’t buy a lot of prepared food, cooked at home and the like. When our first baby came we used cloth diapers (so we didn’t have to pay for the disposable ones) and had to freeze dry them in the garage in the winter.

Discussing how it is easier to eat healthy when you have food stamps but once that is gone or you have “graduated” from the program, you can no longer eat as well. By ditching your grocery list in favor of a meal plan, you can take control of your finances and your eating, and change the way food affects your budget.
