Dinnerly, Home meal kits

 Love them or hate them, the meal kits may be here to stay and that can be good.

So far, nothing is more frugal than grocery shopping and making meals at home.

But I found meal kits to bridge the gap between home cooking and going out to eat.

Especially if you use a coupon code or Groupon and cancel when intro period is up.

That is key, cancel, do not let it roll over into the regular price.  That is unless you have budgeted for it.

Intro price 1.74 Per Person per meal.  Regular price, around  5.00 per person per meal PLUS SHIPPING.

For 3 meals a week for family of 4 intro around 36.00, afterwards 60.00 plus 10.00 shipping

And we are back....

 Wow, Covid  made life wonky for a while

I am back and have been crocheting the whole time.

Now...to sell my crafts

I will be selling crochet for the first time later this month.

So, perhaps I will make some money.

I only buy the yarn on sale and have gotten a lot for free.

For the Craft Show, I am sticking with the Frugal,  Reusable items.

Dishcloths/washcloths. face scrubbies, market bags, coasters, Swiffer covers, soap savers
