Wow, it amazing how much money you can save if you are willing to take a few extra steps. As Americans we have been branded as lazy, and in all honesty our need for convenience is costing us a lot. Not only in the decline in health and eating habits but our increased cost due to buying convience.
I love the AllYou magazine, not only is it packed with high dollar coupons but also tons of tips on saving money. You will find some of the really good ones below.
If you like Greek yogurt, then you can make it at home.........if you like. I usually pick up Greek yogurt for less than the price of regular yogurt with coupons that double. However you may enjoy making your own so here are the instructions: Put regular yogurt in a cheesecloth-lined sieve; chill overnight. The next day you’ll have creamy, rich Greek-style yogurt at a fraction of the cost. (from AllYou website)
Of course you can ask the deli counter in your favorite store if they have any end pieces from slicing cheese, these ends could save you a lot of money. These ends can be used in soups, casseroles, or just mac and cheese.
If you are in need of buttermilk for a recipe, you don't have to run out to the store or try to keep some on hand. Simply reach in the fridge and pull out the milk that you have, a cup to be exact and add one tablespoon of lemon juice. Shake or stir and you ready to rock and roll!
Feel free to leave your tips, in the comment section.As you add them, I will add to the post so that you don't have to scroll down.
