I really liked your tips for saving money in the grocery store, especially the part about planning menus ahead of time. We recently flew off on a camping vacation. We planned our meals meticulously as we would not be able to bring leftover items home. At the end of the week, we had almost nothing left over. I thought then that if I were more diligent about planning my home menus, I could eliminate a lot of waste.

I think another part of saving is teaching kids how to save money by spending it wisely, etc. All it really takes is some light discussions about our choices as parents.

Awesome tips! I’m teaching my kids how to save save save. Instead of buying then the top of the line contract phone and spending hundreds of dollars on cell phone bills, I went over to KMART and bought them each a TracFone. I am currently paying $45 a month for unlimited talk and text on America’s most reliable network, Verizon Wireless
