I guess I need to get back to my blogging, vacation is over and the kids will be back in school soon. I have been spending more on meals recently because we were traveling and I need to get back to the focus of this site and show some of the ways I have found to be thrifty.
Buying a produce item in season to bring home is something I have done regularly for years when making a trip down south. This year was one of my favorites ... peaches! I find it interesting to seek out markets and sometimes even a grocery store that might have things I can't find where I live. If it's something plentiful in that area you will often get a great deal. It's kind of like extending the vacation just a little longer with a treat you bought during your travels. Local items are often reasonably priced and you can find everything from fresh grown to artisan goodies and wine that will be an adventure to look for each time you return if you find something you love.
