Atlanta home inspector’s wife shares another meal saving tip

During these times, I have looked for ways to save money?  Did you know that if you live anywhere near Cumming, Georgia that on certain days you can go to Tyson’s Chicken plant right there off the square in Cumming and purchase chicken for about half the cost that it is at the local grocery store, that is the last time I bought some.  I haven’t bought any in a while because when we go I usually pick up three or four boxes to put in the freezer.  Below is a map to their location and I believe their phone number is 770-888-4611.  They’re only open odd hours Mon.-Thur. so I would try calling before heading that way.

Atlanta home Inspector ran across this meal saving tip

This is a great idea from a friend of ours who just happens to be a home inspector also.  I personally never heard of this and I am very excited about checking it out.  Sometimes the old thing of “What are we going to have for Dinner” gets so old.  So below is what our friend wrote:

 When things are slow, money wise, you’ve got to find ways to save in every area of your budget.  We had a habit of eating out too much.  We always had good intentions when it came to eating at home, but the day gets busy, schedules change and so on until it’s dinner time and we are caught unprepared.       I found a great site that has helped us tremendously with getting our grocery shopping organized and has saved us money as well.  I heard about E-mealz on the radio and gave it a try. http://www.e-mealz.com/amember/go.php?r=28614&i=l0(justcopy and paste link into your browser) . It cost $5.00 per month to use the service.  Here’s how it works.  You sign up for the plan you want, which is one of various menu plans that are made each week around the sales at the store that you shop at.  We use Publix http://www.publix.com? .     Each week on the day that your favorite stores ads are released you can go and print your dinner menu.  It also includes a shopping list with the individual and total prices.  It’s a great program that has helped us eat at home and save money.  Our favorite store is Kroger and from what I understand it is available for most stores.

Meal Saving Tip for Busy Moms and Wives

I like to shop in bulk and when I can I buy the larger packs of ground chuck on sale. I use to bring it home and break it up into 1 pound packages and then freeze. I have learned that when I purchase it in the 5pound plus package not only do I save money but I can also save time. When I get it home I go ahead and brown it all then put it in 1 pound packages. This makes it easy to pull out for tacos, hamburger helper, vegatable soup, or to add to spagetti. Not having to stand over the stove and thaw it makes it so easy to use right out of the freezer.

Hope this helps some other busy wives out there. I know with trying to do the marketing, teaching and learning about social marketing, blogging and everything else, I don’t want to worry about dinner time.

I’m Flying

Several years ago I ran across this really cool website that has changed my life. My life and home was in chaos (can’t have anyone over syndrome). I started receiveing these emails and I couldn’t figure out how this was really going to work for me, yet I kept reading and kept throwing a little away here and there and just kept trying to get my life in order. You see, I really have a servants heart and I love to cook and bake for people and generally like to have them over, but because of the chaos that I was living in, I never could. Fast forward till now – my husband’s home inspection business is up and going and getting very busy and I’m busy helping him with it. If I didn’t have the flylady systems in place, then I would be crazy by now. So if you have chaos in your life and

need to get rid of some of it visit flylady.net and fly.

PS: I’ve gotten rid of two dumpsters full of stuff, either in an actual dumpster or to the good will.
