I did not know that. AND u...Thanks for the tidbit!! I did not know that. AND unfortunately the devastating storm that came through on Saturday did something funky to the power, and we lost our second fridge/freezer, so I will NOT be freezing anything extra until we have another one to use. <br /><br />I'm super glad you like what I'm doing. It's awesome to see you save money! Where do you do your primary shopping? <br /><br />be blessed!<br /><br />XOXO<br /><br />ttnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7142919087937030073.post-82703116909914412052011-04-18T16:09:46.846-04:002011-04-18T16:09:46.846-04:00Love that you are doing this blog! =) I, too, plan...Love that you are doing this blog! =) I, too, plan meals out for 2 weeks in advance. I sit with the kids and their school lunch menus, and we decide what sounds yummy for the next few weeks for dinner. Then I make sure that we don't mirror for dinner what they had for lunch, so there is always a little variety for them. Also, I plan for the sales on the household items such as bathroom and kitchen necessities (bags, filters, paper needs, dog food etc.) I only allow myself to buy WHATS ON MY LIST and NOTHING else. I have saved over $100.00 every two weeks by doing this! Fantastic!<br /><br />Also, I'm sure you already know... but when you freeze your milk , make sure to pour about a cup or so out of the container before you freeze it. The containers expand when frozen, and once thawed... they leak everywhere! =) Lesson learned the hard way. =(<br /><br />Again... love following this part of your blog. You. Are. Wonderful!<br /><br />Blessed Be!<br /><br />JJessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14262445637090634789noreply@blogger.com
