| Thrifty Tips Wanted! |
|
| |
I know we depend on the Father to provide for our needs. I know we are THE "KING'S KIDS". I am simply trying to provide a place to exchange ideas of how person can be better stewards of what they do have. Sort of the waste not, want not approach.
I've read that some people are cutting back on medications in order to save money. I personally do not like the idea of being over-medicated. I still take blood pressure meds and thyroid meds, since I feel it would be unwise to stop them. I am not advocating "self medicating" or refusing to follow doctor's orders. But, it is a way many people, as I understand it, are cutting back. I've read that many people are making one trip for errands do the job. Instead of running back and forth running errands one at a time, which can waste gas and time. I try to make one trip count for several errands, when possible. I've read that many people use vinegar, soda, and other common products in place of more expensive cleansers. I am using some of the common products to clean, but still buy some of the more expensive cleansers. Please feel free to share some of the tips that work for you or someone you know. I welcome thrifty tips in any area. (Including recipes for cleaning, food, etc.) Thank you for sharing. Thanks for being a blessing! |

| I reuse the plastic containers that margarine and other products come in. They make good microwave dishes, or I use them to freeze cooked food. I freeze chopped peppers and onions and use what I need when I need it |

Thank you, Prophet Jay! Freezing the peppers and onions is a great idea. They could be frozen in the margarine containers that you spoke of, too!!
Thanks so much for your comment and star. I appreciate you! |

don't buy instant stuff. rice is a good example... you can get your rice for a good price and cook it all in one day. package in containers (ie- butter containers or zip lock bags) and freeze. only takes a few minutes to heat for a meal. beans is another. you can get a bag of dried beans for a buck and do the same thing. (this one is a third the price of canned beans) |

Bubbles, Thank you so much for your suggestions! Hey, we could cook the rice and the beans as you say and freeze. Great for a QUICK meal of "beans and rice"!! That's a popular meal in Louisiana! Very nutritious, too. Thanks for a great comment. |

Yeah, red beans and rice is a BIGGGGG thing here in Louisiana. I prefer pintos to red beans or one of the other dried bean types. But, your freezing tips and money saving tips are good ones. I just KNOW some other folks on here have some good tips, too. I will add that I do a big pot of veggie soup and freeze that in smaller portions. When you are cooking for one, you can't eat a big old making of soup! Boy, does that taste good on a cold day and it's easy to get out and warm up. Soup and crackers! YUM YUM! |

Brenda (Grandmama's Love), Thanks for your tip of a good cleaner. I've not tried it yet, but I will. I appreciate your reading this blog and for the comment and star. I will take this opportunity, while responding to your comment, to add another tip I found good. Add a little baking soda to dishwater when washing greasy pans. |

I have learned to live frugally over a long period of time and am loaded with ideas... don't have the time to post any of them just now... but will come back with some off and on if that's ok... as this is an important topic and I think it needs to come up alot for people to see... so am just adding a star for now, so people can see the topic and come read/add to it with us! |

God for sure takes care of us, but He likes it when we are good stewarts, yes. We've always had debt and lived paycheck to paycheck, though believe it or not I am anticipating a change in taht for the better; yes, in the midst of a recession! lol Anyways here's some stuff that I've done and still do: Coupons. EVERY CENT COUNTS. Use 'em Wash every piece of clothing that you can get away with, in cold water Hang your clothes to dry if you can; dryers are heck on a power bill. Thrift stores for clothes. I don't know what you got in the states. I know you got Salvation army. anyways, it's fun to shop at these and get some awesome deals on namebrands and stuff. I always shop at these. Fun! Buy roasts and whatnot, cook then freeze the leftover meat for sandwiches or whatnot. Take the bus in city; you waste more gas city driving than highway. Walk when you can. It's good for you too! Keep vinegar on hand. This is good for ALL sorts of stuff like fabric softener, for cleaning floors, and a gazillion other uses; just google! Buy club packs (bulk) where you can and also stock up when something is on sale. Tofu is a cheap meat alternative you can flavor into whatever you want. Buy a bag of powdered milk and mix half and half with homo milk set your thermostat down even 3 degrees and put on sweaters and woolies get window insulation kits; cheap & help save on heating costs Buy your bread at the outlets that sell day old. MUCH cheaper. Freeze them for a bit and they're OK. ALWAYS check for sales in your flyers! Compare prices on different products to get your best deal which most of us do I think If you got kids, there is NO need of buying exspensive toys and stuff; buy second hand! I know you guys don't have a big Tim Horton's thing going on in the States, but like ummm... Starbucks? Make your coffee at home instead of buying your daily Starbucks. Treat yourself with one on the weekend. :) OK, I'll shut up, now. Can you tell I've been at this a while??? lol Stretching the $$ best I can. |

Bren, I thank you for stopping by to read my blog. Thanks for the star! Bubbles, Now I said I was from Louisiana and that red beans and rice is popular here. I prefer pinto to red, even being a native born Louisianian! LOL! I'm with you! I don't mind other members of the bean family though and your suggestion would work for any of them. Cook um, freeze um, get hungry for um, heat um, eat um!!! LOL!!!

HolySpiritWithin, Thanks for your comment. I understand the time factor. I know you will post some of your great tips at a later date and I will appreciate it when you do. I think it is an important subject and that it could help people stretch their money further. Even though we may have plenty, it never hurts to save when and where we can. Thanks for your star and comments. I really do appreciate your participation! |

Lara, THANK YOU for your comment! Your suggestions are FANTASTIC TIPS! I liked all of them! I really do appreciate you for taking the time to read the blog and for sharing the tips. You are right, every bit of savings adds up. Each step may seem small and insignificant as one little baby step, but it all adds up! Quite a bit of savings to apply to something else. I'm a bit under the weather (sniffles, very tired, and a Fibro flare) so I am not on too much right now. I just did not want to forget to sincerely thank you for participating in this blog. Blessings! |

OK... I'm back with some time and ideas and ways to encourage our being resourceful as well as frugal. (Am one of the local Networkers in our area who connects people to such groups/resources as listed below, so this is why I know there is so much out there, if I may name a few, to begin with)
www.craigslist.com is a good place to find deals in your area, and they offer free stuff too... as does www.freecycle.org. Think used before you think new... as many people do not use what they buy as an impulse by... or they only use it once then try to find a home for it. Regift such items... or buy at thrift shops/yard sales when you can, for Christmas, Birthday, Anniversary, Wedding, Thinking of you gifts... and keep a box of such items to pick from.
www.AngelFoodMinistry.com is a good place to buy food at a low price. See if there is one in your area by posting your zip code at their website, if not, think about beginning one with the help of local volunteers. Their menu changes every month and you can see the current menu at their site, before you decide if you want to find one or not... so do check it out.
In our small community, we have begun a 'Free Community Exchange' along side a 'Free Pot Luck' the last Saturday of each month (a great way to fellowship and find those in need, spirit, soul or bodily and help them)... people donate items to us and we give then away for free, one does not need to give/exchange to receive, (we could not think of a better name to describe what we are doing, so suggestions are welcome), and many come and volunteer with us spontaneously.... it is something we believe the Lord led us to start and we believe it will grow from community to communit as the idea catches on. Several local churches offer their facilities for free and ask for donations/volunteers via their services.... and we post flyers all month to draw the community in. We have just entered into our 3rd year. We call it 'Feed My Sheep'... if anyone wants advice as to how to do this, let me know and I will be willing to give details. Check out your local papers for other such things which may be going on... there you will find other groups that you can network with, refer or utilize yourself, such as the local Pregnancy Crisis Center, where one can get help with baby items/food for example.
The local Health Departments and Fire Departments have Free Community Programs in our are to help with free flu shots and free car seats ect. If you check them out fairly regularly you will see what's available for time to time. Sometimes such things are posted at the local Library Bulletin Boards too.
Speaking of the Library... they have free movies and story hours they offer (a way to get your children out and entertain them for free, especially in the colder weather when the local Parks are too cold to hang out at)... and they are a great place to check out free DVD's and VCR's, CD's, books on tape, as well as books... saves on having to buy/rent.
If you have children, see if there are local programs offered for free for them via you local community center. If your budget it tight, there are Free Scholarships/grants available... and sometimes some places/organizations like the local Dance Studio or Art Center, Community Sports Clubs will let your child in for free on a barter basis, (you help clean up afterwards, for example).
See if you can qualify for the local Food Bank... you don't have to be on social services to quality in some areas. Farmer's Markets often donate excess to them in the summer, as does 'Hunters for the Hungry'... (they donate deer meat). Sometimes these places will take your name and call you when they have too much... if you don't quality, as they hate to toss frozen deer meat ect when they need to make room for fresh food. If you volunteer often they will often give you excess too... and it's a excellent place to serve.... you will be given many prayer burdens as you do.
Buy from Local Farmer's Markets/Produce Stands, they are usually cheaper than the grocer also... most people who sell at Farmer's Markets are willing to sell (for less) or give away bruised/blemished veggies and fruit, which can be used to can or freeze. (A miss shapened tomatoe for example will not sell) If they are too bruised, and you grow your own food/plants and need free compost... they are usually willing to give you the stuff which is rotting, and you can compost it or give it to your farm animals as table scraps.
Grow your own food if you have the space... start some plants indoors early... such as tomatoes and peppers, the seeds will usually last for more than one year and save on the overall cost and you get your harvest earlier than if you had bought them yourself. Group your own herbs too!. Herbs can be expensive, fresh or dried. Dry your own fruits and veggies ect. If you don't have alota land, pick up a large plastic barrel saw it in half, fill it with soil and use it as a planter for some veggies.
Plastic Barrels can be used to catch rain and used to water plants.
Local Farmers are usually willing to donate or sell for $5.00 a truck load of muck from their barns, which can be used to make free Compost. Such when it is composted produces free rich soil. (don't be afraid to ask, and to be resourceful, people are usually willing to give away to someone who has such a willing spirit to do for themselves or is need of saving) Don't forget to compost weeds and table scraps, which are not meat items.
The Local Tree Pruning Service the Highway Dept uses, are usually willing to deliver you free chipped up trees at the end of their day you can use for free mulch... (they trim in winter too and you can collect it then and use it later). Sometimes local woodworkers (such as us www.RusticCharlie.com) are willing to give away free shavings for mulch/pet cages.
Grow your own mushrooms... if you like to use alot of them. They can be grown indoors all year and outdoors too. (I can give you info on how to do that if anyone's interested) Also... I take the mushroom stems and boil them and then cool them, then I puree them and free the broth either in a large batch for soup flavoring... or in ice cube trays or small dishes, to add flavor later.
Boil down left over carcasses from Ham's, Turkeys, Chickens, Beef and the like and freeze the broth for seasoning later, with or without the meat you picked off., (Ice cubes or larger batches) Take the bones and toss them in the woods or give some to you animal to gnaw on to keep their teeth clean, cheaper than buying raw hide bone at the pet shop, or toss it at the far corner of your property for wildlife, if your into feeding nature as we are. The bones are gone the next day in most cases. (You can also take left over bacon grease and mix it with stale bread crumbs, cereal, crackers, cookies, oatmeal cooked or dry, peanut butter, nuts and bird seed, ect and freeze it and then put it out on a cold winters day to feed the birds).
Speaking of leftovers... you can keep taking any leftovers and put them in a large canning jar, or container of some sort and freeze it until you have a large batch to make Hodge Podge Soup out of. (yes you can mix and match meats, gravies, veggies, a little here a little there, adds up to a flavorful pot of soup later).
You can use left over bread for bread pudding, bread crumbs, homemake crutons, and the like. I have recipes for those interested... also, you can do the same with crackers... have a great recipe for Toffee Cookies make out of stale crackers. Bread can be freshened see: http://www.ehow.com/how_2182009_freshen-stale-bread.html THIS is a great site to find out out to do lots of things as well!
Make your own homemade hot chocolate, bisquick, pudding, bread crumbs, cakes, french fried ect... (have recipes to share for those wanting them), they are cheaper in the long run and bag up small bags of potatoe chips up rather than buy them prebagged.... have the kids to them for the next day themselves to save you time. Reuse the plastic bags that meat and produce comes in and if you have a seal a meal, you can reseal the chip bag to keep it fresh.
Buy items when on sale, especially food and make your meals based upon what you bought when you can. Meat is usually marked down in the morning... but ask the gentleman behind the window and shop when you can to accomodate. Plan recipes based on what you have on hand or what is on sale. Shop with a list so you are not tempted to buy what you don't need, and never shop hungry and when you do buy an item on sale, think about what you have in stock already to make a meal out of, and buy items accordingly for the recipe. Before walking up the the register or before putting it in the cart, think again.... is this necessary? When you can stock up.... for a rainy day. Make it homemade when you can... and make a large portion and freeze part of it for a day when your too busy to cook.
Well that's all for now.... enjoy!
Sis... hope you feel better soon!!!! |

A wealth of GOOD INFO here. I am going to wait a day and then copy this for my daughter.
We save by shopping at Goodwill especially for growing kids. You can save soooo much money on clothes and toys, books, etc. In these times I have noticed that stores are sending more stuff to Goodwill. I go to consignments shops, yard sales, church sales and get great stuff for little of nothing.
I freeze a lot of stuff and use left over containers (from chinese restaurants, margarine containers, etc).
Freecycle is awesome - You would not believe the stuff that people give away.
Will come back later when my short term memory returns(LOL)..
Love you guys |

Here are some of my tips: 1. Recycle all glass, paper and metal cans 2. Use some of the glass or metal containers to put liquid waste (like old grease etc.) in and freeze it before discarding. 3. Buy inexpensive cloth bags for 1 dollar to re-use as grocery bags or save all plastic bags for further re-use for shopping or carrying other goods. 4. Purchase gently used items (clothes, books, magazines, toys and household items) from the 2nd hand store for personal or family use). I have recently bought new corelle stoneware cups, new winter scarves, new summer clothing, a summer purse and craft magazines for excellent prices! 5. Purchase used furniture for repurposing or refinishing. Recently i`ve purchased several floor lamps in great condition, a coffee table and a newly upholstered wing chair. 6. Shop at dollar stores and inexpensive variety stores for a variety of items. Recently I`ve purchased christmas tree lights, hair clips, face cloths, snack cakes, toilet items and colouring books for personal and family use. This is also a good place to purchase cleaning cloth (that doesn`t leave lint like old towels), magic cloths and swiffer type disposable cloths, plastic containers for storage around the house, like glue and craft items, inexpensive candles and note books. 6. Purchase inexpensive cuts of meat or fowl to make brothy soups (turkey wings, pork bones, beef scraps). Freeze some and eat some. If you like chili, you can also prepare big batches of this for freezing and reusing. 5. Purchase meat in bulk family quantities and repackage into several portions for freezing and later use in meal preparation. 6. Purchase dried goods like: sugar, flour, rice, beans, baking powder and seasonings, in bulk and repackage at home as desired for later use. 7. Save money by going on line each week to check out the deals on your local supermarket and pharmacy for that u need for the week. Often there is a couple dollar differential on comparable products all within a few blocks of each other. (I buy staples like toilet paper, paper towels, laundry soap and household cleansers in this way. if it isn`t on sale, I don`t generally buy it). 8. Buy an electric mattress cover to warm up your sheets before you go to sleep. This will save on heating bills. 9. Plug the drafts in windows, vents, etc. in your home to save on heating bills. 10. Purchase a small and efficient ceramic portable heater. This will save on having to heat the whole room. 9. Take a shopping cart from your home and walk to the grocery store. This will give you some fresh air and exercise as well as save on gas and wear and tear if u have a car. 9. Save money on technology by doing research on line for product reviews and price comparisons before buying...as well as waiting for sales. Some tremendous deals can be found this way. I also will ask a retailer to price match an item if I don`t want to go back and forth between stores. 10. Take advantage of promotional deals on bundles for cable television, telephone plans and internet use. Do not enter into long term contracts if you can avoid it as this is really not a good deal for u the user. Often you can get free installation on promotional deals. 11. If you don`t want or need a bundle then check around for your very best telephone plans. Most countries now sell Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) services like Skype and others. There can be a big difference in the rates. Better to have an unlimited rate plan to as many countries in the world as you can if you make long distance calls, rather than pay by the minute plans. 12. Use Craigslist and check the free items under `the heading ``Ìtems for Sale. You will often be amazed at what u can find there. Be careful however to ensure your safety and likewise if you are getting rid of stuff from your own home....use safety sense. 13. Borrow books from the library or join a group like bookcrossing.com where you can exchange books to read with people from around the world. 14. Buy a small freezer and make meals ahead to use for later. This will save time and money whether you are single or with family. It will also stretch your dollar if u learn to shop in bulk. 15. Buy a George Foreman grill to grill your foods. Not only will it knock out all the grease but you will save electricity expense of using the oven in your stove. 16. Don`t subscribe to the paper or magazines. Instead read them at work or your local library or on the internet. 17. Tear your bounce sheets in half if you use them and you can use a piece in two loads, rather than one, getting double value for your money. 18. Use home products to clean...eg. a mixture of vinegar and baking soda works much better on kitchen grime than anything else I`ve ever used and is also a lot gentler on the painted wood. There are lots of home products mixes on line. 19. Buy flour in bulk and bake some bread in your electric bread maker. It is very easy, delicious and saves you time. You can also whip up dough to make cinnamon buns, etc. 20. Use a slow cook stews, meats, etc. overnight while you are sleeping. 21. Don`t use store plastics from margarine and other foods to reheat your leftovers in the microwave. These plastics are unsafe and emit gases that are not good for u. Instead do some research on what products will work best. Likewise, teflon coated pans are not good. I tend not to use them but make an exception for the George Foreman grill due to the fat it eliminates. 22. Buy health supplements (Omega 3, Vitamins etc. on sale when u can and stock up for a few months to save funds). 23. If you don`t need a car sell yours. When you need it you can join a car cooperative or a car pool to get to work or do some shopping. 24. Trade and barter with friends. Perhaps you have kids` clothing that can be gifted to another family. Perhaps you can cut and colour hair for your friend and your friend can reciprocate by doing your taxes or something. 25. Clear your clutter and gift it to someone you know IF they need it and would put it to good use before giving it to goodwill. There are so many families who cannot afford to shop at goodwill these days as things are even expensive in these kinds of shops. 26. In the USA you have much bigger stores and can shop in bigger volume than we do here in Canada so can probably save an awful lot by buying in bulk. If I think of anything else to add I will add it later. In the meantime, I`ve found the above comments most interesting! God bless and happy savings :-) |

HolySpiritWithin, Thanks for telling me about your Livingasimplifiedlife blog. I briefly looked at it and will certainly look at it better. It looked to me that it contains great information. I appreciate that you realize people are and will be searching for more and more thrifty and simplified answers as well as spiritual information in the days ahead. I agree with you, the more links the more blessings available to people!
Thank you for inviting me to provide a link to my site. I will try to do that soon. Blessings! |

| Less is more as they say and I have been using less butter, less sugar, less laundry detergent, less coffee, less everything in ingredients or soap suds or whatever, use less shampoo, just a tad less makes it all last longer and you really won't notice it. |

Great post and great responses.
My suggestion is more general. Spend one month and write down every penny you spend. At the end of the month, I can almost guarantee that when you sum it all up you will be shocked by something...usually something unexpected.
I did this a few years ago and gasped when I saw over $150 for cokes and snacks from the vending machines.

| may I add one more? Energy efficient or florescent light bulbs. They are expensive to buy but pay themselves off very quickly. Just remember you can't use them in enclosed lighting fixtures. |

Yaschild, It's good to see you back online. sorry to hear about your problems with medications. I just started getting a newsletter by a doctor Russell L. Blaylock, M.D. he writes every now and then for Newsmax mag which I subscribe to. He stopped his practice to write about "natural cures" which I am into. Also, "Organic foods" He has an archive you can go to if you have a subscription to his newsletter. I will look and see if there is anything about your problem.
In any case, I heard a couple years ago about "cleaners" being unsafe to use and actually causeing health risks. I bought a W2O mop which cleans with steam only. It cleans real good. And it leaves the air smelling great. No heavy "chemical" smell. I also just bought a "Monster" steam cleaner which pushes out hot steam like the other. But your carry it and can get behind things you couldn't before. I cleaned my bathroom and got behind the toilet real well. This is a place I feel very important to get reel good. But, this thing is better than getting down on the ground and using brushes and harmful cleaners. I hope Laura Leger reads this. Florescent bulbs are very dangerous. They contain Mercury gas which you know is very dangerous if you break one open. There was an paper the "EPA" came out with years ago that warns not to vacuum the particles and to leave the room. They have a list on how it should be handled. I will buy black market bulbs, if I can before I will use one of them. They claim to pass a law that you will HAVE to have them in a couple years. What a great tyrannical government we have. All vaccines have mercury in them also. Blaylock says they have never been proven effective, contain MSG also and are far more dangerous than the virus they claim to treat. The "Phrma" industry needs the money you know.
We can blaim Barny Frank, Chriss Dodd, and a number of other gready polititions for this mess. Oboma is making it worst. Well, let's not get into politicks. |

Lara,
Thanks for your comment and the reminder to NOT use them in enclosed lighting fixtures. Sorry I've gotten behind with my "thank yous" but it's been one of those "seasons" of stuff going on. I appreciate any hint and tips--a penny saved is a penny earned! |
