We had a local school supply giveaway that ran out of backpacks. I was thinking that Walgreens sell them every year and Walgreens would have been good place to get them. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 33414561 United States 07/28/2015 04:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I use www.pricematcherz.com every week to see what is on sale in three cities around us, all that the local Walmart will "price match." We save around 20% off Walmart's prices and don't have to drive around to get the good prices. I also have a small garden and that helps. Today I harvested tomatoes, eggplants, three kinds of peppers, onions, and basil. When I have excess, I either give it away or freeze/can it. |

Peel and slice a banana, put in a container and they last many months in the freezer. Mango, soursop, pineapple, guava, berries etc all the same setup. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1313288 People give stuff away for free on Craigslist you can always pick up those items and sell it on eBay when I was unemployed I did this went to thrift stores bought stuff and we sold it on eBay made as much as $3000 a month * I have 8 chickens Don't forget you can pickle those eggs for when the girls cool down for the winter. Vinegar is cheap. I wish I had more time so I could do even less. |
pmb1 User ID: 1474067 United States 07/28/2015 07:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am still selling eggs here in NC for $2.50 a dozen. I have found the best way to shop is to stock up on just what is on sale each week. It really helps loads if you have a card for certain stores as well. Foodlion here in NC has their MVP card and you can go on site and add coupons to your card from the site. I usually buy what I have a coupon for that way if they have a sale on it. If you can get eggs real cheap then freeze them in ice cube trays then place in baggies 2 cubes is one egg. And works great when you bake like I do. |
