Cook for Other Families to Save Money
Here is a helpful hint that not only would help you and your family but could help other families as well.
To save money on groceries, you could find one or two families who you know are very busy and either eat out a lot or order in a lot. See if they would be interested in having you make meals for them. The key is they buy enough groceries to make enough for their family and yours. I find if you're making a meal anyways, it is very easy to double it. A friend shared this hint with me and she personally makes meals for two separate families. One family she will cook for two days a week and the second she will cook for the remaining three days, with the weekends being leftover days. Then on Fridays, she sits down and makes up the menus for the coming week and the ingredient list for both families. They go buy the food and drop it off to her for the week.
