Extending Holiday Bargains

Turnips and cheese

During the fall/winter season there are great bargains to be had. Far better than most other times of year. For instance, here in the US there are certain foods that are attached to Thanksgiving so that grocers stock up and use those items to bring customers into the store. Rather than shopping for only one meal, occasion or season, stock up on the items you will use and enjoy throughout the year.

In my area, sales change on Wednesday, so Tuesday will be the last (theoretical) day I can get those bargains. There are some foods I love but save for only special events. But on sale I can collect a couple to save for later. Yes, I know, I'm shopping. But consider this, frozen green beans, $0.69/#, organic half and half $2.29/32oz (can be frozen), apples and pears from $1.00 - 1.99/# - even organic, and of course butter! The staples I use didn't change, but why would they? I have found a new grocer for organic oats, dried cherries, and some lentils. The rest I get online.

It's your dollar, you may as well be as savvy spending as the marketers are working to get it. Consider the gift of consumable goods to friends and family. Who doesn't appreciate a treat now and then, or perhaps a meal? Check out recipes for easy spinach dip and simply delicious green beans.

To life! Abundantly!
