Frugal Friday! How I Saved This Week!

Prices seem to go up every year for just the basics.

Unfortunately, our income often doesn't match the pace

of the increase for costs of goods.

"A penny saved is a penny earned"

is something I heard very often while growing up.

So, here are a few of the ways I saved some of our pennies this week,

which in turn allows us to live comfortably on less.

 

 

 

With the snow on the way and the temperatures dropping

I took the time to make sure all our windows were locked and sealed,

which keeps the cold air out, the warm air in,

and saves on our heating costs.

 

 

I used cloth napkins instead of paper napkins.

 

 

I used old grocery bags to line the garbage cans.

 

From a bit of leftover roast I made a Beef Noodle Soup

which will be hubby's lunches while he works night shifts.

 

I made some homemade bread.

More economical than buying bread,

which is quite pricey right now

and also better tasting!

 

 

I took the bits of meat off from the turkey bones

and made a dinner of Turkey Stew & Dumplings!

Very yummy indeed :)

 

How did you save money this week?
