I feel like I'm at the store all the time!<br /><br />@Katy That's an interesting idea, for sure. Thanks for the tip!!Frugal(er)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13972354611688622400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971083762875016745.post-67563503048521154322012-02-04T07:48:37.950-05:002012-02-04T07:48:37.950-05:00Well, picking up the coupon inserts would be a &qu...Well, picking up the coupon inserts would be a "good neighbor" thing to do, even if you just chucked them into the nearest recycling bin - who needs litter?<br /><br />And if you don't use the coupons yourself, you can send them to military families overseas to use at the PX/BX/Commissary (USAF brat here, so I know) - see Overseas Coupon Project: http://bit.ly/y3ilkF . You might even be able to talk up OCP as a group project at work! Adopt a base, collect & sort coupons (up to 2 months expired) into food & nonfood, get the right box & customs form at Post Office, send at regular US postage rate.<br /><br />As to the yogurt extravagance, look into crockpot yogurt recipes, using high-quality plain yogurt as starter. With a set of reusable glass containers with lids to hold portions, you add your own jam or fruit to taste.

I buy the big container of greek yogurt (not the chobani one though) or the regular organic yogurt and in general, they aren't more than $3.50 tops (The greek one, that is the sale price though).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
