Grocery Deals 3/9-3/15

Print Friendly and PDFPrint Friendly
Food prices are predicted to rise!  So are gas prices!  Now it is even more important to find the best deal on the food you use.  Stockpile when an item is at it's lowest price and you will have the comfort of knowing your pantry is filled.  

Next Wednesday there is a new grocery store opening in the old Big Lots location called Sunflower Market.  They have great produce and meat prices!  You should have received a $5 off a $25 purchase with your grocery ads this week!  Check this store out next week!

I use the Grocery Smarts list to get all my deals.  Check out all the Smiths deals HERE.  Use the store tab on the top of the page to see other grocery store deals.

  MARCH GOALS:

3-Month Supply Goal:  Make 1 meal per week that uses only food from your pantry and food storage.

Water Goal: This month you need to fill all your used juice and detergent bottles with water.  Label them and store them for cleaning water.


Financial Goal:  Last month we wrote down everything we spent for a week.  Now that you know where you could be saving money, you need to put that money away to use towards your food storage.  Next month is case lot sale month and you could save your money for that sale!!


Long-Term Storage Goal:  This month is frozen food month and we are going to focus on MEATS & FROZEN FOOD!  Your freezer is your friend when it comes to a 3-month supply.  Most meats and vegetables can be frozen to extend the life of the food.  Use your freezer as an extension of your pantry!  

Wavelength Emergency Radio/Cell phone charger/flashlight
Emergency Preparedness Goal:  This month you need to add a radio and a crank cell phone charger to your storage.  Both are inexpensive (radios can be as expensive as you want) and can be found online and in many stores.  Make sure the cell phone charger you purchase has a plug that fits your phone.  Emergency Essentials sells a radio/charger/flashlight combo for $12.95!!  Click HERE to see that product.

Enjoy the Journey!
Enjoy the Blessings!
Feel the Peace!!
