Grocery Haul $77.56! Frugal Living! Zero Food Waste Recipes and Tips!

[@creativelycountry3343]

I absolutely LOVE these use up the “bottom of the barrel “ ideas! I’m so guilty of wasting the last 1/5-1/4 of things. This is such positive encouragement 😃 if you haven’t watched all Emmys past video as, I encourage you to as she has a lot of these sprinkled in

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh that is so very kind of you to say! Thank you!

[@Camille-accessories]

I have been religiously following a zero waste principle since I started following you 🤗

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

LOVE that Joyce! It really does saves money and food!

[@rochellethundercloud346]

Our new rule is if its not freezable and is not used before it goes bad,we do not ever bring it into the house again. For what?we know its not being used.why waste what little money we have on things we will not use?

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thanks Rochelle!

[@alphaandomega7465]

Good to see another couple utilizing leftover cucumber. Me and my hubby do cucumber, thin sliced onion, quartered tomato and Italian dressing. Yummy 😋

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Sounds great! Try so hard not to waste food! Thanks for watching!

[@debimorsette1685]

Good morning, Frugal Buddy. It’s so pleasant to get up in the morning, check my texts from my kids and grandkids, and make myself a cup of coffee and watch a couple of your older videos. Great buys on your groceries from this haul. Yesterday,3/10/22, I picked up whole chickens from Kroger for .99 lb and so was excited to get milk on sale for .87 per half gallon. I bought 5 and put 3 in the freezer. Milk has gone up here in Vicksburg, MS, to $3.99 gal. Too high! Our gas has steadily gone up from $3.03 a month ago to $3.99 this week. I’m so happy we three sisters are content to stay home with the prices on everything. I’ve stopped making huge hauls from Costco and Sam’s Club. Hard on the pocket book and our waistlines. I’m strictly staying to our $180 month budget with 20% of that going to stocking up the freezer and pantry. Thanks for your continued frugality and encouragement. 🥰🥰

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Debi you have the right idea! Thanks for sharing!! You really got some great prices!!

[@paulaluse1684]

We loved to chop up cabbage with some butter in a pan & fry it or use it in vegetable soip.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Great ideas Paula!! Thank you!

[@marynienhouse6143]

I love the way you all us lovingly to the chaos using EVERYTHING in our fridge! It’s awesome!!! I always think what would Paul and Emmy do? Always saves us $$$. Thank you both 😘

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh Mary that makes me so happy! So glad the video was helpful!

[@christinewharton1542]

Emmy you always look so pretty you are a breath of fresh air thank you for making me smile during lock down here in the uk xxx

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh Christine! That is so kind of you! Thank you!

[@WilletteB]

Your video is refreshing. I like what you did to use up your bits of vegetables and fruits left before grocery day. Also, your savings for food was impressive. Thanks so much! 🙂

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you so much! Appreciate you being here!

[@kimbvr]

I never even thought to freeze my lemons! Thank you for that tip! Also, I love your vintage Easter/Spring decorations! Blessings to you!!!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you Kim! Blessing to you too!

[@amy2284]

Hi Emmy- I’m so excited to find your channel. When I saw that video that you and hubby retired at 55- I clicked on it right away. We are about 45, so we are so excited to learn from you and your hubby. I am very excited to here and see your a Disney fan too- I am a huge one and wanted to know if you can do a video if you get to go to the Disney world parks. How often do you guys get to go?

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Welcome Annie! So glad you found us too!! Yes, huge Disney fan here. We try to get to Disney World in Florida as often as we can. Usually about every other year now. Thank you so much for being a part of our channel.

[@GeckoHiker]

Preserving lemons is a great idea. You can take this idea a bit further and really waste nothing. I scrub the lemons and dry them well. The first step is to zest them all and freeze the zest in an airtight jar. Then I halve them and use a $3 thrift store electric juicer to get all the juice then freeze that in ice cube trays to store as cubes of lemon juice (also limes and oranges). Then I prep some of the peels for facials and the rest for flavoring citrus water in the fridge. I love a fruit acid lemon peel facial a few times a week. Rub the lemon peel over face, neck, hands, elbows, any spots, leave ten minutes then shower as usual. As a result of a lifetime of this practice I'm in my 60s with no age spots and hardly any wrinkles. A nearly free fruit acid treatment from lemons I buy anyway.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Great ideas Sandra! Thank you!

[@carolyneastman6095]

Hey, Dixie! I juice lemons and freeze by teaspoon amounts in ice cube trays, then place in freezer jars......thank you for more great tips 🤗

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you for watching Carolyn!

[@Sandy83]

How come Rachel Ray or the Today Show haven't contacted you for a segment on how to run a household for less but still live abundantly? Never knew the freezer trick for lemon and limes, I love learning these types of things. I already cannot wait for the next video!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Sandy that is so kind of you to say! How fun would one of those shows be...dream big right LOL!

[@kakelinga]

This video reminded me that I had some cabbage left over from Saint Patrick's. I made a coleslaw too. 👍 I love how you are really on it when it comes to using up what is in the fridge and trying to a live zero food waste lifestyle. Love it.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thanks so much! We really do try!

[@glendagonzalez2469]

Freezing the lemon wedges is a game changer. I used to juice and freeze them in ice cubes, but this is so much easier and you use as much or as little as needed. Amazing idea.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So happy it was helpful!

[@homegrown1015]

Awesome food haul!! It's getting warmer now so I can clean my 2 freezers in the garage. I'll be able to sort out what I have and what I need to buy. It's almost like a treasure hunt, lol. Have a super week, Emmy & Paul❣

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Love inventorying our food supply! You're right never know what you'll find!

[@TheLovePowerGoddess]

It would have been wrong for you to pass up the waffles! :) I usually freeze my lemons and limes, but it never occurred to me to slice them first! LOL I had been freezing them whole! Thanks

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

LOL! It would of been wrong for sure! Thanks for being here!

[@cathymillar9900]

I always slice my lemons, freeze on a cookie sheet. Then put into bags and freeze.

[@QuiltingCrow]

My favorite cole slaw recipe is quite similar to yours: I cut the cabbage by hand in very small stripes and an apple as well. Then I toast some walnuts in a pan without fat, let them cool and chop them up. The dressing consists in mayo, some maple syrup, a little bit of pepper and some celery salt. Soooo good!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Very similar! Love the toasted walnut addition! Thanks so much!

[@maireahernofs6682]

I had no idea you could freeze lemons or limes! I love to put a scoop of ice cream on top of a waffle, so good! Those Disney themed waffles are super cute.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Aren't they darling! Disney comes through again lol!

[@marilyncole9646]

I’m so glad you got the stains out of the tablecloth. It’s so beautiful. I have a couple of towels that are stained. I’m going to see if the local dollar tree had oxy clean to get the stains out. 😊

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

[@maryannrogers8675]

I love the idea of freezing lemons and limes. I’m going to get lemons this week and give it a try. Yes to zero food waste. If you’re throwing away food it’s like throwing away money. Your Easter dinner will be delicious!! Hi to Paul and Dixie!!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thanks so much Mary Ann for watching!

[@greeneyedredhead61]

Hi Emmy Love your idea for the cabbage... What I like to use fresh green cabbage for is on tacos...I use it instead of lettuce...have you ever tried that? It is so good. Love seeing your grocery hauls....we eat very similarly.... not 100% but vet similar. Love your freezing tips. gardening tips...and some of the recipes. Thank you for sharing and thank you for sharing your lovely views... I am so happy spring is here too. Love hearing the birds chirp. I also love your idea of making your own sandwich meat....I am guilty of buying processed lunch meat..and you are so right...it is all about convenience, and honestly..I never really paid much attention to how expensive it really is...and honestly...it isn't even very good. SOOO tomorrow..I am going to buy a couple of hams since they are on sale for Easter and I will slice and freeze them for sandwiches. I will also do the same for chicken and Turkey breast. Bake it slice it freeze it. I'm sure it will make for much better and much cheaper Sandwhiches. Thank you.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Sounds wonderful Terri! Rest assured we all lean towards convenience at one time or another...lol! Thanks for being such a great part of our channel!

[@misfit7610]

My Grandma would slice up the cucumber and a little onion with a little bit of mayo and we would have that as a side for dinner to this day it's one of my favorite sides :) .

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Sounds so good! Thanks Mis Fit!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So happy the video was helpful Margo! Thanks!

[@tonyaparham2179]

Is that traditional where you are? Apples and raisins in cole slaw? I've not seen that! Bet it's good. My grandmother use to put boiled eggs , sweet pickle, onion, and apple in her tuna (with the Miracle Whip) and when I was a kid, I thought everyone did that. It's only as an adult I find- I've never seen anyoen else does that. I thought it was a Southern thing but I guess it was just a thing in my family!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Great buys at Shoprite again. Now I have to go back. I saw the online flyer for this week and want to get the flour and sugar at those great prices and a couple chickens for my lil freezer. I already have one in there so it's going to be crowded. But I have a lot of room in the freezer part of my refrigerator. Just have to juggle some things around. I am bad about not using up cucumbers too. Can cream cheese, ricotta and sour cream be frozen? Loving the spring weather too. I have a lot of branches and sticks to pick up because we had 2 nights in the past week and half of super, super strong winds. The worst ever since I've been here. Blew off a strip of siding! Got it fixed already. I HATE the wind. Give me rain and snow, but no wind, thankyouverymuch! Have a nice nite!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Sis, creamy dairy like those you mention tend to separate when you freeze them. Basically they loose their creaminess. Even after defrosting and stirring sour cream is watery. Cream cheese tends to get crumbly. I freeze hard cheeses (cheddar, Monterey Jack etc.) and mozzarella with wonderful results though! Have a great week!
