31 Ways to Save on Your Grocery Budget: Tip #23


TIP #23 - BUY YOUR SPICES ELSEWHERE OR GROW YOUR OWN.

Anytime I run out of a spice, I dread having to buy a new one! If I don't find a good deal on it and I need a new one now, it's usually a good $3-4 at the grocery store. I then realized that there were off brand spices sold elsewhere at a much reasonable price that were just as good of quality.

Also, when I can, I try to grow my own spices. Herb gardens can be fairly easy to maintain and you always have fresh spices on hand.

Getting spices at a reasonable price or growing your own saves money on your grocery budget!

Tune in tomorrow at 9AM for Tip #24.

    I have tried basil, parsley and oregano so far. These are the spices I use the most.

    If you aren't sure about growing them, consider looking at Wal-Mart or home-improvement stores for those little herb garden starter kits. They are fun and the kids love them, too. Something simple to grow!
