| Mix Cheap Wine With Kool Aid
|
|
Now that my child is in college we have had to cut back on expenses. Mixing cheap wine with Kool Aid (even the big gallons that only cost about $15.00) taste really good. I only drink red wine, so I am not sure about whites.

| Eating Healthy on a Budget
|
|
I am desperately in need of losing weight. I am only 29 yet I have zero energy at all. I feel terrible. When I have money I do good with eating healthy because I can afford it.

| Frugal Tomato Sauce
|
|
I recently decided to make my own spaghetti sauce. I buy an institutional size can (106 oz.) of ground and peeled tomatoes at a Sam's Club type store for approximately $2.50, and then add my Italian seasoning.

| Virtually Free Broth From Trimmings
|
|
Save and freeze all meat trimmings and bones. Also save the celery tops, onion skins, pepper seeds, tomato skins, etc. When you have enough bones and meat trimmings of the same kind, add them to a pot with a bay leaf and some of the celery tops and onion skins.

| Make a Drink from Fruit and Veggie Peels
|
|
I have always hated the idea of throwing out food. I like the idea of getting "something for nothing". When I peel vegetables (except potatoes), I boil the skins for a free (and healthy drink).

| Say "No" to Pizza Delivery
|
 We all know it's hard to make the necessary cut backs when, come Friday night, you still want to order Pizza Hut. We have done a good job of talking ourselves out of it and in the end are happier for it.
