Freezer Cooking to Save Money

Believe it or not freezer cooking is a great way to save on your grocery bill in addition to saving you a tremendous amount of time.  Having your freezer full of pre-prepared meals can really change your life. 

Yes, we all love convenience, and yes, driving through a fast food restaurant may seem convenient, but it is painful for our wallets and downright bad for our health.  Even more convenient then a drive through though is being able to come home and reach into the freezer for a nice healthy dinner.   

Freezer cooking day is hectic and busy, but it is well worth it when you have weeks' worth of dinner prepared and ready to make the other days that much less stressful. 

When you decide to make freezer cooking a part of your life, begin with a well organized menu and shopping list.  Always remember to start your shopping in your pantry and to shop sales with coupons so that you make this adventure as frugal as can be!

Here are some great tools to help you!

Saving Money Even Though You are Not in the Big City

Several months ago, I printed off this terrific $3.00 off any Yes To Carrots product at Walmart meaning that I could most likely get a free cosmetic product.  Unfortunately, I have discovered that my Walmart does not yet carry Yes To Carrots products.  A little depressing considering how much I love to get FREE stuff!

So here we are, placed right in the middle of some pretty big cities and yet, we still want to save money like those "big city folks" do.  There are so many coupon sites out there, but it is pretty common for us here in the Willamette Valley dont't get the same deals because the big city papers often have different coupons and the stores don't always carry the same items. 

So here you have it. Frugal In The Willamette Valley.  I hope to be able to post some great deals that you will actually be able to take advantage of.  Additionally, I will be posting activities, entertainment, recipes and more ideas that are sure to help any budget conscious family!

Thank you for visiting my site! Hope to "see" you again soon!
