2021 Frugal Things In April

 1.  Manager's Specials are great for cutting your grocery bill.  Just this week I bought a chuck roast and two kinds of sausage for 50% off their regular price.  When  we got home they went immediately into the freezer for future enjoyment.  I also found sweet peppers, eggplant, grapefruit, bananas and mushrooms for  50% off.  Some are frozen, some are worked into the menu for the next couple of days.  None will be wasted.  All will be enjoyed.

2.  Traveling with a lunch packed at home is a frugal idea.  It uses up food in the fridge, saves a stop which saves time and saves money.  It is also usually healthier.

3.  We spent three nights in DC visiting family.  The hotel was all paid for with points!  $0.00 out of pocket.

4.  We bought a case of an item.  We saved a further 10% or $9.00.  I will take it.


Frugal Fail:

I made a batch of cherry citrus jam that failed.  All those ingredients ended up in the garbage!  : (  Throwing away food is the opposite of frugal!
