[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 455568, member: 1514"] I will be honest, I cant go near as far as any of you. Im still trying to figure out how we get a full large sized black trash bag a day with just 3 people in my house! Not a regular kitchen sized bag, a big black one with the tie thing in it. I do try to only buy our meat on sale. Heck, since our teeth are so bad we can only eat really tender and stuff either cooked for hours in the crock pot, soups or hamburgers. Tony goes fishing a whole lot but sometimes that isnt as cheap as it seems. If he goes out on a head boat that can cost $80 but he normally comes home with at least a whole cooler of fish so I guess that evens out. He does fish local rivers though and brings home a ton of fresh fish. He gets a least 2 to 3 deer a year which helps a lot. However, I cant do as much homemade stuff as some of you. I simply cant stand up in the kitchen that long. Im lucky if I can stand up for 5 minutes at a time most days anymore. I will start saving my butter containers if i can keep up with the lids. Whoever was trying to figure out if soda bottles were big enough to keep cereal in unless they still sell those 3 liter bottles that have a bigger mouth. But I think a juice bottle might work. They have a bigger mouth on them. I noticed that when I bought apple juice for Keyana this week. [/QUOTE]
