Saving on School Lunches
by Kimberly Danger
The average school lunch costs in America costs
only $1.80 -- a challenge for today’s mom to
beat in both price and convenience. However, a
little organization is all you’ll need to send
your kids to school with nutritious lunches
while saving money at the same time.

Saving Money with
Vegetarian Meals
by Kimberly Danger
It’s no secret
that meat is expensive. Even the cheapest cuts
of meat don’t go much lower than $3.00 per
pound. Contrast that to plant-based proteins
such as beans and lentils at $1.00 or less per
pound and you can see that the savings is
substantial.

Save up to 50% on Your
Grocery Bill
By Jill Cooper
I have discovered the secret
of saving money feeding babies, toddlers and
preschoolers. Well, I can’t take the credit
for it. My mom taught it to me many years
ago but I didn't put it into practice until
the first financial crisis we had when my
husband was laid off.
Saving Big
Bucks at Aldi
by
Kimberly Danger
I
recently made my first trip to the brand new
Aldi grocery store in my town. I had big
expectations – moms have been raving about it on
Mommysavers for years. My first impression
didn’t generate fireworks – in fact, I was a
little disappointed. Upon deeper inspection, I
began to see why moms get so excited about it.
Atmosphere aside, this is a bargain hunter’s
paradise. You can save money -- serious money,
if you shop there regularly.
