Use these great video tips from Hope! I also check the price per ounce or per serving because sometimes now the smallest or mid size package is cheapest. I also hedge against inflation by buying a yearly supply example denture tablets which we use to sanitize toothbrushes and mouth guards. I bought a year:s supply for $20. Currently a year's supply would be $38. These don't go on sale. Of course it is just a one year buffer but it all adds up. We are also doing things some would consider extreme like cloth handkerchief, cloth napkins at the table and toilet sprayer instead of toilet paper. Saved several hundred dollars that way last year. My colleague has 3 teen girls and herself. They save $300/year with reusable monthly female products. At work I keep "emergency food" so if I forget my lunch or work overtime I am not tempted by drive thru, delivery, etc. So we reconsider every purchase in terms of annual cost. Maybe spending .50 cents more per week for name brand whatever doesn't sound like a big deal but it's $5.50 more per year or $55 over 10 years. Not worth it for us. Love the comparison between diy and readymade.
May I suggest rectangle shaped glasses for both of you the next time you’re due for a pair? You will probably like the look! Thx for the video!
Did one of your kids go to college ? Just kidding, everything is so expensive I struggle with the cost of food. I’m going to be watching quite a few of your videos learning how to be even more frugal than I am right now, you can always try to get better at saving money
Our Kroger stores have ads at the door still.
I only buy one frozen prepared meal, pizza. The only reason I buy it is on the days I do yard work, I'm usually so exhausted (I'm 74) I need something that required no prep time and frozen pizza fits the bill. The rest of the prepared meals are too salty for my taste, because I cut down of salt years ago and now even restaurant food is like eating a salt lick.
The only grocery stores close to me are Walmart and Harp's. Harp's is high on everything. Harp's sale prices are higher than the Walmart regular price. We do have an Allen's Food Store, but they are higher than Harp's.
My folks taught me a lot about making money, but not enough about how to keep more of it. Thank you guys for helping me be more efficient at adulting and enjoying myself while I do it. ❤
Another thing I like to do is buy fresh meat in bulk when it's on sale due to its approaching expiration date, and then store it in the freezer.
OMG! Yes! You NEED a list! Whenever I don't take a list, I end up with random items to fill up what I feel I "expected" to spend – but I didn't get a bunch of items I needed! So, back to the store I go and spend more to get them. Plus some more random items that worked their way into my basket.
Is fetch available in Canada?
Available in Canada?
I just love you both! An old gal from Petersburg, West Virginia
Fetch has a reward game spins right now

Thank you! New subscriber here!
Absolutely great tips. Just what I was looking for. I’m trying to save as much as possible
What about the meat / hamburg & spaghetti sauce too go into your beans 🫘 & Rice that adds up too be more money and how many meals do you get out of all of that ????
I too love fetch.. I just collect points so I can get a $5 virtual visa card and then I use that $5 on my electric bill… fetch also has a spin and win on t h e app that you can use once every 24 hours.. I set my alarm so I don't miss the opportunity to get anywhere from 5 to 10,000 free points… I just used a $5 reward today on my light bill
