Our Food

I realized the pictures I've been posting contain a lot of snack foods. I do buy a lot of snack foods during Mega Sales because they are extremely cheap with coupons and they will last us a very long time.

There are also a lot of good deals on 'better for you food'. I get great deals on yogurt, cheese, fruit and vegetables at Dillons too. It all just depends on what is on sale for the week. When something is on sale and I have coupons, I stock up. I have nowhere near the stockpile that a lot of others have, but I try to have enough of an item to last until it goes on sale again.

I also stock up on meat. I buy most of our meat at Food 4 Less. I've just found Food 4 Less is usually cheaper and we've never had any problem with any meat that we've bought there. We have a deep freezer full of ground turkey, chicken breasts, steaks, roasts, pork chops and even brisket that I have found there cheaper than any other store. If another store has a big sale though, I'm there.

There are coupons for all sorts of foods. I know a lot of people new to or wary of coupons think that coupons are only for junk. I have coupons in my binder right now for salad, meat, yogurt, cheeses, vegetables and milk. I also used all of my Cuties coupons for the clementines the past couple of months. I think we went through at least 15lbs of them which wasn't very difficult in a family of 6.

I just want everyone to know that there are coupons out there for the foods you want to feed your family. I hope you give coupons a chance and I secretly wish you become an addict too.
