One thing I have noticed is how much vegetables cost these days. In order to keep my grocery budget in check... we have decided to start a small garden in our backyard. This can easily be done by doing "container gardening" for some of the items. We are going to grow the vegetables that are more budget busting--i.e. peppers, tomatoes, herbs. During my grocery shopping last week, one green pepper was $1.99! Crazy, huh? We are in the planning stages and hope to have it in place next weekend.
Also, tip I learned from my mom---cut your dryer sheets in half. You don't need a full sheet in your dryer--so cutting them in half is simple, easy and makes them last longer-which in turn saves you money!
Happy Monday--make it a great one!
I'll be interested to hear your experience in container growing! I was thinking I might do the same thing. You are right, peppers are so expensive! I was planning on doing tomatoes...but maybe I'll do some others, too.
