Free Recipes

Purchasing groceries online doesn’t really seem feasible when you add in shipping and handling?  Not to mention, standard shipping takes 7 to 10 days. What if you need groceries right away?  It depends on which site you go to.  There are sites that offer free shipping or offer it for a one time membership fee.  Do your research but there are definitely a couple of ways to save money by buying groceries online.

Amazon.com

Amazon offers a free Amazon Mom membership to moms, dads, grandparents, or anyone who has kids in their life.  Amazon Mom offers 15% off of a wide range of selected items and up to 30% off on exclusive deals in the Baby Store.  Type of items include diapers, maternity clothes, cribs, baby food, groceries, household supplies, toiletries, auto care, video games, electronics, personal care, sporting goods, and practically anything else you can think of.   Diapers are about $10 cheaper on amazon.com than in the stores.  That’s big savings.

Incredible Eggs
Providing necessary protein as well as antioxidants, eggs are a delicious way to eat well while saving money. Even at $3 for a dozen, eggs are filling and taste great while only costing about $.25 each. Scramble an egg in the morning for a quick breakfast, or keep a stash of hard-boiled eggs in the fridge for a healthy snack on the go. To limit your intake of cholesterol, try to eat only one egg each day or eliminate the yolk, using only the egg whites in your recipes. (more…)
