I eat cereal for dinner all of the time. I live alone so I don’t have to worry about pleasing a family. Living on cereal for dinner can cut my grocery bill way back!

Hey Erica,

Try the following link: Mommy Saves Big

Sometimes I will find a coupon I can use, sometimes not. If you shop at Target, you can go to their website and they will allow you to print coupons for foodstuff they sell.

You could try coupon.com too. Hope this helps a little.

I’m interested in this sort of thing as a college budgeted individual, but the blog doesn’t give nearly enough details in the break down of the food bought and meals made.

Me and my partner are also trying to figure out ways to cut down our bills, given the rising cost of absolutely everything in the UK.

One thing we’ve recently got into, and have had good results already, is growing your own stuff. If you’ve got time to plant a few sides and water them every so often, in the long run you end saving a bomb. Admittedly it won’t happen overnight because you’ve got to wait for everything to grow, but once it has done you’ll begrudge ever paying for herbs and vegetables ever again!

Trader Joe’s is cheap???
Where do you live?

I go to Trader Joe’s because they have stuff that other stores don’t have. And that’s exactly the reason why they are NOT necessarily cheap.
But it’s an excellent store anyway.
