I thought this would be a good way to share each others secret savings ideas.
Obviously we all either raise our food or buy in quantity when the price is right, or like us, both. What I would like to share is how we save $$ in other areas, like food prep items, or throw away items and the like.
I'll go first since I started the thread.
Cling wrap:
We buy 1400 foot rolls of skid wrap or pallet wrap. It's like 10 bucks and lasts us several years. It doesn't cling to a dish as good as the national brand wraps, but it does cling to itself very, very good. In fact it clings to itself better than the name brands. And at ten bucks/roll, we wrap the entire dish instead of just the top. The roll also fits in a standard width packing paper roll holder and cutter.
Next?
