Sara Noel: frugal ideas for the kitchen

Sara Noel’s Frugal Village column for today features frugal ideas for the kitchen. You’ll find it on page 3E of today’s print and e-editions of The Monroe Evening News or here at the Frugal Village web site.

My favorite tip from Sara today is “Do the math”:

I’m sure that there’s someone out there like me who runs out of money and then realizes she forgot to buy something when it’s too late. I figured out on average how many days a box of diapers, a can of formula, package of wipes, etc., lasts me. Then I write when I’ll need to buy them on the calendar. When I’m planning my purchases, I know when something will need to come out of the current paycheck and what can wait until the next one. — EdgyBlue.
