Spices are an item you can save a bundle on by recording and comparing prices in your Price Book. You can read my in-depth post about the advantages and How-To of The Price Book HERE. I buy common spices like cinnamon, ground ginger, onion and garlic powder, etc. at Costco, the Dollar Store, Big Lots,…
If you have been reading my posts (and hopefully saving a lot of money!) you may be wondering, What is this “Price Book” I keep hearing about?! The Price Book is a record system that allows me to pay what I want for my groceries, at the lowest prices! It is the foundation of The…

I made these pancakes yesterday for my family, and wanted to share the recipe with all of you! I have been using the same basic recipe for a number of years and it is a very reliable recipe. I’ve tried other recipes, and always come back to this one. I like to use Bob’s Whole…
Twenty years ago, I went from spending $500 a month on groceries (for 2 adults) to $50 a month. So, how did I do it? The following is an overview of My System, and I will be writing a more detailed post soon on each of these strategies, so keep checking back! Happy Saving! 🙂 As…
Every Sunday, I make a big batch of soup for the upcoming week. We usually have it for dinner the night I make it with a salad or bread, etc. During the following week, my husband likes to bring soup every day to work (and he is totally fine with eating the same thing every…
