Prairie Eco-Thrifter

I don’t freeze food in the used bags, but do use them for leftovers in the frig. If you want to get fancy, draw, paint or sew buttons on it for eyes. Years ago my Dad made a screw driver holder to help us organize our growing collection of screw drivers. Two liter soda bottles. Clothes pins. Coffee can and cardboard.

So instead of menu planning, buying what we need and eating it, we are buying what we feel like, cooking too much and throwing away the rest instead of eating the leftovers. Ny taking your own bags, reusing plastic bags you already have or even sewing some fabric bags from old t-shirts and things you can save a lot.

The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 5, 2024

Sewing holes in clothes, using up leftovers before they go bad, finding free activities for my little on the weekends, checking buy nothing or marketplace before purchasing- I am always just looking for ways to spend money. What’s the easiest/hardest part of being frugal?
