My goal is to provide dinner for my family for an average of $5 except on special occasions. We don’t have to eat beans and rice to accomplish this goal! I shop the grocery sales each week. Then I plan my menu based on the foods I have already at home (at a great price). I balance more expensive meals with less expensive ones. We typically only cook a main dish 4 or 5 times a week. Each main dish {Read More}

Since we moved to Texas a year and a half ago I haven’t really been to any garage sales. Oh, I’ve been to one or two here and there, but not really gone garage saleing like I used to do back in Arkansas.

We own plenty of movies that we just don’t ever seem to watch, so we try not to add more to that dust collection. If you are going to buy DVDs I recommend that you try to get the for less than $10. Movies are getting cheaper and cheaper and if you {Read More}
