My baby steps... I batch cook and at the end of the week, not only am I sick if eating the same food, but I have food leftover. in the past, I would just throw out whats left. BUT..... last week, I had 6 meatballs left from a batch of 24 I made. I decided to freeze them even though I was sick of eating meatballs. LOL. welllllll, today, I decided to have spaghetti alfredo...and I took 3 meatballs out of the freezer and it was delicious!!! I didnt have to cook chicken or shrimp to go along with it and so I saved money!!! YAY FOR ME!!!
I purchased the e-course on Wednesday. I wanted to have mine printed and bound for $5 like Heidi but Kinkos was charging $35 so I passed. Today I printed off the cookbook at home and used what I had (sheet protectors from school last year & a notebook). Can't wait to go thru it and make plans. I've watched 3 videos too. This is hard for me because cooking isn't my bent but I'm trying.
Love these tips! One way I keep my produce/deli drawers clean is by folding up tea towels and putting them on the bottom. Then I can just throw them in the wash instead of having to scrub drawers.
That's a great idea, thank you
Love this idea. Thanks!
I've really enjoyed these videos with Heidi. I hope that we can see more of her!!
I am a very frugal shopper and after 35 years of shopping for my own home and family I have it down..but I still was able to learn new things from the E-course! It is so worth the full price and half price is a ABSOLUTE STEAL!!! Love seeing you in these videos Heidi!! I could listen to Tawra and you all day!
I had to retire early because of arthritis, I had been paying things off, so I was ok. I wish I had found your vlogs before. You have taught me so much. You have given me help to reach my goal of living only on social security and saving money and only using my IRA major things. Thank you 🙏
You two work so well together. More videos like this. Fantastic.
Loving this series with Heidi. Heidi, you have a great smile.
Our garbage goes out Tuesday night and hubby is like a drill sergeant making sure the frig is cleaned out. LOL.
Okay, you've peeked my interest enough I broke down and bought the e-course. Not sure what extra I'll really learn but I honestly love all your videos (im pretty sure my husband is sick of me ALWAYS listening to them lol). I've already cut my groceries down from easily $200 a week to $50 by intently listening so I figure even if I dont get too much more new info (although is seems like I will) I would gladly pay you another 12.50 for all the help you've already given out!
And remember she includes a 224 recipe cookbook! That should help as well. You got this!👌🏽
Love the clean the frig idea. If you have more left in the frig to use up than you can you. You can freeze some of it. For example. I have peppers I didn’t use up. I am going to make stuffed peppers and freeze the extra for later . Since I live alone, it will work for me.
I spend £80-£90 a week for a family of 4 including toiletries, I don’t throw away anything 😊
I SO miss the Cleaning your fridge posts on the FB group! I clean out my fridge every week. I love these videos. Thanks for sharing!
Cat Lover where are the fridge cleaning videos?
@@kencurtis2403 sorry. I didn't mean Fridge cleaning videos. There used to be a facebook group and we shared a picture of our clean fridges. It was fun. Tawra did do a video a while ago on cleaning out her fridge. Look in her playlist.
I have stopped putting opened jars of salsa for tacos in the fridge, I put them in the freezer, for the next time I need them. I was constantly throwing away salsa in opened jars from the fridge, but not anymore. Maybe not the most $ spent, but I like to use it instead of throwing it away. Also, I shred cheese that needs to be eaten, and freeze them into zipper plastic bags, perfect for pizzas and tacos.
When I moved into my home I needed a fridge and I bought one by LG that is 2 ft by 2 ft by 76 inches tall. I know that I have a habit of losing things in a fridge so when buying this new fridge I bought one that was small because there is no way I can lose things in a fridge that is space limited. The funny thing is that the bottom freezer is as large as a standard fridge. I am no longer tossing out food because I can see everything at once.
I have been loving the videos of you two together. On point every time and Heidi is a cute addition.
This is a truly excellent video. I have been focused on rotating freezer and pantry items since January, which has made me more aware of what's been living in my fridge. My shopping has been reduced by more than 50%. It makes an enormous difference.
I found my old receipt from the grocery e-course and I’m going to watch it again. Thanks for reminding me!
I have saved so much money with my vacuum sealer. I RESEAL everything. I have it set up in a cabinet. You can reseal crackers, chips, freezer items, anything in a plastic bag. It keeps stuff just like new if you reseal quickly. Thanks for your video. Rhonda
Oh, I save those bags to use as a ziplock.
I am LOVING these videos! It's been so fun to have a new video everyday. I love you and Heidi in these videos. Thanks guys!
Oh my word, I ran to my fridge and started cleaning during the video! Thank you for your inspiration. Now I have to find out what that smell is...
I’ve been cleaning out my fridge in anticipation of an upcoming holiday. Nothing has gone to waste. From now on I will translate my savings from thrift shopping or yard sale purchases. That’s a great idea. Excellent collaboration.
Thank you so much for making this video I feel like you're talking directly to me I am definitely going to use your idea for cleaning my fridge out once a week and I'm excited about it never thought I'd say that but I am thanks again
Love you Heidi! You guys are great together! Really enjoy your shows together!
Skipped my Sunday Starbucks for 6 large cans of diced tomatoes for my pantry .99 each in Canada
I love these tips i love them. Along with this, i have been learning with time to only buy what you need and buy the quantities of what you can really eat. Cook smaller and stockpile smaller because then you waste food and get overwhelmed with huge amounts of food still in your storing closet going to waste because they eventually expire.
Good seeing you again, Heidi. I have been cleaning my refrigerator once a week for years, so yes, it does save money.
Thank you so much for all of your work and sharing tips!
Love these short tip videos! Easy to watch one all at once & not get busy & have to pause in the middle.😊
Loving these videos!! And just ordered the grocery e-course yesterday! Thanks!! 😊
Thank you!
Great tip, and I'm going to clean it out today!
I try my best to not throw away food. I popped my DH leftovers from the Mexican restaurant into the freezer last week before we left for vacation, For lunch today I pulled out the frozen leftovers (one beef tamale, refried beans and rice) heated it up and split onto two plates along with some tortilla chips with cheese melted on top for the two of us.
I love this tip! I remember it from the Facebook group. I need to start doing it again.
I bought this a couple days ago...lots of great information, and I already tried out one of the recipes, the one for apple cobbler. Really nice thanks
Loving this series!
I love the two of you girls together. Please make more.
great video series!
My God I love this channel! So many great tips
Another great video! Going to clean out my fridge today!
We don't throw out any leftovers. I live mainly on oatmeal. I make a batch one day and eat half that day and half the next day, no waste at all. My partner eats meat so for him we batch cook rice and beans and meat in the instant pot. Makes 6 - 8 meals for him. I also batch cook things like spaghetti or mac and cheese with tuna for him, so that he doesn't have to eat the same thing for each meal. It works. Nothing at all gets wasted.
Heidi’s great! 😊
Great video ladies.
Heidi I miss seeing yours and everyone else fridge on Wednesday lol!
I have the e-course and love it but I sold my Dining on a Dime cookbook simply because I wasn't a fan of the recipes and most of it I already did my way. The cookbook is great for someone just starting to do all this.
Very true..
Great tip. I've been trying to do this, well, at least being more consistent with eating up leftovers, and getting the produce that has gotten hidden in the back of the drawer. We have been eating creative meals more often, and my husband loves it because it saves us hard earned money! I will try to make it a point to do this once a week.
I'm curious. What is the oldest thing in your freezer?
How can you diss like this? I'm going to try that... I never look to see what I have left and I've bought extra. Thank you for your advice. God bless.
Please print it out!
60% of my fridge is condiments I am not joking haha
I have always wondered how people keep track of condiments. My GF's mom had salad dressing from.....1997! My stomach turns thinking about it. LOL ~ Heidi
@@LivingOnADime Mostly it's pickles and jams for me. I make my own dressings due to soy allergy
. ( I can things myself too)
A couple years ago I thought to myself 50% of what I can is condiments. LOL
@@LivingOnADime I think ALL of what I can is condiments. I like to control how sweet or spicy they are myself. It's super fun to me.
As a grandmother I am surprised how much I learn from your channel,,, loads of helpful tips and I love your cookbook ( I have the original) I am guilty of wasting too much and I am going to clean my fridge out before shopping and see how this reduces the food waste,,, thank you!
What type of cabbage do you use in your cold slaw? Is Green cabbage the same as Savoy? My store only had red and Savoy. Thanks !
I use the green head cabbage. I think Savoy is a softer type of cabbage that might be too limp. Some people use red but I've never tried it.
@@mindys3581 Thank you, MIndy !
How much did it cost to print and get the e course bound?
Hi, at my Kinkos they quoted $35 for just the cookbook so I printed it myself. I goofed and did one-sided copies, should have done two-sided. I found an old 3-ring notebook and used page protectors (making each page 2-sided). Avoided Kinkos and Staples all together.
@@lesliethomas6229 Thank you :)
My dogs know the sounds of my cleaning out the fridge.
Someone told me that on grocery delivery,they add to the prices of the food,and that it is more than if you buy it at the store itself...is this true?
We pay the same price as the store with a $7 grocery delivery fee or Free for Pickup at the store door.
Not true! I use Safeway's web site to order my groceries online, and then use their curbside pickup. (We live in a rural area and home delivery isn't available to us yet.) Prices are exactly the same as "in store". Safeway does add a $3.95 service fee to the total order. Considering they do all the work of getting my order together, and then bagging my items, and then bringing the order to my car, and then loading everything into my trunk === I think the service fee is a bargain!
Does your friend have a youtube chanel? :)
👍👏😎🤗💰
6 minute mark, amen! I completely agree!! Those videos are so ridiculous!
Women don’t get to retire. Cooking, laundry cleaning. Doesn’t get done unless you train your husband to help
I would never train my husband. I train children not grown men. My husband does all the yard work, oil changes, repairs, and many other things also that are much more difficult than laundry and cooking. Bless his heart he will never retire either if that is the standard. ~ Heidi
AMEN Sister Heidi! :-)
I see no reason why men should not work around the house if he is retired, household shores and/or repairs etc. My husband works more than me, so I do most of the housework, but sometimes it’s a bit too much so then I ask him to do something. If I’ve had a long day I sometimes tell him nicely and casually about my day, all the things I did at home and at work, it often makes him realize all that I do and he volunteers to do something.
