[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 237483, member: 1233"] In addition to making all of our mixes (biscuick like mix, cake mix, taco seasoning mix, etc...) I also make frozen pops that fill the "ice cream" and popsicle need for my kids. Out favorite is to take unsweetened applesauce (generic brand, where-ever is cheapest, but always unsweetened) and stir in a little cinnamon and sugar and then I put them in the tupperware popsicle molds and freeze them. Not only do they boost the kids fruit intake, but by adding our own sugar they are as sweet as we like them and have a TON less calories than the sweetened applesauce has. Aldi's is over 80 miles away, so unless I have to be near one for an appointment, we only have 3 shopping choices - WalMart, a locally owned IGA which can have good specials but is overall very expensive, and a small chain that is very high in price except on specials. They have the best meat deals, but you really have to watch for them or get to know the meat people to get deals on mark-down meat (which I buy and freeze). I wish we had more choices. Do any of your stores take internet coupons? Ones you print off on your printer? because here only WalMart will take them, and they won't take a lot of them. [/QUOTE]
