  I have saved almost $1,000 for the last month because of watching money saving videos and getting intentional with what we don't need when shopping.

  The BEST frugal tip of all time is to buy on sale and stock up!

  Another suggestion ... It is always a good idea to check your receipts before you leave the store.  Something my mother taught me. I have made a habit of using self check out where available due to cashier error and incorrect prices, particularly on sale items and discounted products.

  I like to buy a pork loin and slice it into pork chops and freeze.  Pork loin can be found around $2 a lb

  Going from Door Dash at $15 a meal to a fairly healthy frozen meal and maybe a side salad or fruit for $4 is a great start for those who are single and busy with jobs!!! I did that first, now I am venturing into very inexpensive meals that run about $2 per serving. Take those baby steps. You will still save and not overwhelm yourself.

  I take an inventory at the end of the month and do my meal plan based on that. I just can’t believe that everyone doesn’t do this. I buy everything at the cheapest price possible to stock the fridge, freezer and pantry and it allows me to do it again the next month. I spend $200 per month for our family of three. All of these tips are great. Also download apps and save coupons which gives you great discounts on lots of things at the stores and even free things. Great tips and I hope it helps people save lots.

  It's not just the cashiers. It's the computers, as well. One time, my husband was charged $100.00 for a loaf of bread that was discounted to $1!!! KEEP AN EYE on the prices as they are rung up!

  Cascading leftovers, we call it Chopped Challenge Night! Sometimes the kids get to do it and they get to be creative

  Rotisserie chickens go on clearance at my local store after 6:00pm. I am happy to pay $2.50 for a pre-cooked chicken!

  In Alaska, there is a program people can sign up for to be called when there is a roadkill moose. If you get a call and agree to take it, then you are responsible for going to pick it up.... like, with no help ... so bring a flatbed. Usually the roadkill moose are pretty beaten up from whatever car they ran in front of, but sometimes the damage is minimal. Ariel and Eric over on Simple Living Alaska have done it a couple times.
