Use Your Freezer to Save Money on Groceries
I spent part of yesterday at Costco and left with sticker shock - and LOTS of milk. =)
When the price of milk started to rise (dramatically) I begin looking for ways to save money on our grocery bill. The price of milk at our local Costco store is usually half the price at our local grocery store. Therefore, I did a little research on freezing milk and learned that it is possible, simple and it does not harm the quality of the milk.
Since the prices of nearly everything else are rising as well, I thought about ways to buy additional items in bulk and freeze them (like cheeses, breads, eggs, etc..)
Here are a few useful links I discovered in my search.
- USDA - Food Safety and Freezing
- How to Freeze Food and Save Money
- 30 Day Cafe - Once a Month Cooking (Freezer Cooking Guide)
- A Guide to Freezing Cheese
- Refrigerator & Freezer Storage Guide
- Freezing Vegetables
Hopefully they will help you make a dent in your rising grocery bill as well.
