I worked at a job that in the evenings.We had a person to help reduce electrical Cost and he would leave a smiley, sticker on the light switch, computer, printer , fan or whatever you had left on and that really worked to help people remember to turn things off. He reduced the company electric bill by 43%
Modern buildings have occupancy sensors that shut off lights when nobody is there. You can install these in your home, though the cost may not be worth it.
In summer months, have entire family pretend you have no electricity to get kids use to being energy wise . I read one family did this in the Appalachian mountains so their kids would be able to cope without television 📺, internet ,video games ,they installed a wood burning stove for cooking meals and heating home .
We love our librarians! They knew all my boys by name growing up. Being homeschoolers, every week we would put books on hold about the topics we were studying. I loved that the librarians always found extra books that they thought would be helpful for us and put those books on our stack, too.
A music organisation donated guitars to my library so everyone who wants to learn to play a guitar can borrow one for free at the library. Greetings from Sweden!
Shredded the meat from a Costco chicken and divided into freezer bags and put them in the freezer. Used the carcass to make a delicious stock with the addition of carrots, onion, and garlic. Strained the broth, and this evening I made the best chicken noodle soup I've ever made. You and several other TH-camrs have taught me to enjoy cooking again. Thank you! 😊
How insane is it (?) that a grocery rotisserie chicken is cheaper than a fresh one from the meat department? I buy three of those a month and just use them like I would formerly use fresh chicken! If I’m serving it to guests, though, I do splurge on a fresh one. Not everyone loves rotisserie! Plus … I can more easily get gravy from the fresh ones.
Thank you My husband and I have been married 51 years and that is a huge amount of cooking (4 kids). I’ve been struggling with meal planning. The Kneady Homesteader did a series of menu planning recently and I found it encouraging. Watching a few channels that encourage this habit has truly blessed me. I now have reached my goal of 45 days in the freezer! This allows me to have my children and grandsons over for dinner with a days notice and no Exhausted Grammy! I freeze 2-3 of every variety to allow this. Your channel gave me the start on meal planning and clean out once a week. I’m planning on gifting my children a basket of meals in jars and freezer meals for nights that are too busy or they don’t feel well. I would have loved that! Again you and Larry are a blessing. Your discipline is admirable
Thank you for mentioning the library! I work in a library in NJ and we have wonderful programs from crafting to book clubs to classes. Plus your library card provides access to not only books and films, but apps for learning languages and free online courses. 🎉
I'm glad the library is connected to a network of libraries. That way, when a coworker refers a book, I can call to see if my library can get it. Within a week, I can go pick the book up.
Fun money thing I do during the holidays is go with my dear nurse friend who retired years ago…we go to a Vintage Holiday Fair the 1st week every November. It has lots of antiques + Christmas decor mixed together. And we just have a ball together looking at all the stuff. We sample all the goodies and laugh so much. We get lots of great ideas for our homes for the holidays. It’s coming up this week and I am getting so excited to spend that time with my friend. My two budget rules of this trip is I have allocated $100 for spending and taking cash as to not be charged a 3.5% card fee.
Since I got a score from dumpster diving I have pb&j a lot more. I've got milk crates of preserves, jelly etc. Checked for recalls and the dates are 2025+. This stuff sells for $3-5 depending where you look . BlackBerry jelly 🎉.
My husband and I are a family of two, with limited freezer space. Over time I’ve gotten much better at making portions for 2-3 days without stuff to freeze. Freezer space I save for meats and other things on sale, including garden produce and foraged stuff. You have helped me so much to feed us healthy food while saving almost 30% on food. So grateful to you both, and to this fantastic community!❤
Hi Larry and Hope! I save money with Kroger with their sales sheets and digital coupons. I do a monthly grocery delivery order. I shop at Aldi's in person and once in awhile Publix and Got Walmart. I make grocery lists. I see what I have in my refrigerator,freezer,and pantry. I only get something to make a meal if I don't have it on hand. Enjoyed this video of yours.
I don't have a lot of time to watch YT videos, but I subbed to your channel. You two just seem like a couple of great, unpretentious people who are just fun to spend time with.
I switched my banking to an online bank. They have "buckets" within one savings account to create categories for Emergency Fund, Property Taxes, Christmas/Occasions, etc....all currently at 4% compounded daily.
I like a gridded menu plan looking something like a calendar in landscape format. I prefer 2 weeks worth of grids available to me so I can wrap from the current week into the next week; doesnt always happen. The menu plan is your tool and is suppose to work for you; you do not work for your menu plan grid whether it si or is not filled out. You own it and you get to make the rules. Be gentle with yourself and give yourself permissions. A week's worth of eating plans is great; tried and failed a month's worth twice. Two day's worth can work too; today and the next day. I find it better to fill out the next day by at least the night before; but the morning of is better than throwing stuff to the stove 1/2 hour before it hits the table. I usually have a meal of emphasis or, the meal I'll concentrate planning, buying, and cooking for. When we had chaotic mornings it was breakfast, when we had folks withiut much opportunity to buy lunch at work it was lunches, and I've given myself permission to mix up the meal of emphasis by daybed the week based upon people's schedules. Many of my meal plans have been based around grocery shopping and only a partial weeks worth (ie when half the stores in town break thier ad on Wed and the other half on Sun). When ive had access to semi-predictabke mark dkwns, my meal plan was formed after I went grocery shopping. The more you meal plan the easier it becomes. -- I like to save the old meal plans to refer to also.
We have cut as many of our monthly expenses as we could. We have saved $$$$ a year I have cut the number of times I go grocery shopping and have cut the budget for groceries/household items, but I do allow myself to eat my Healthy Choice frozen dinners w some added frozen vegetables, Triscuits and cheese, and a dessert for my biggest meal at lunch. Lots of varieties of dinners and Triscuits. I do love making 15 bean soup or chili in the crockpot and I do make homemade cornbread and banana nut bread. 10:12
Had a friend ask that he borrow $300 I gave him the money but I told him I want it just like I handed it to you. IDC how long it takes but I will not take payments too much like I'll have a job as loan officer. He has not paid me back and I still value his frhip .
It can be a slippery slope from “helping” to “enabling,” - which I found out the hard way. Please be careful that you don’t go so far with this that it endangers your own financial health. I did that :( and I am now filled with resentment whenever I allow myself to think about it too much.
@@LauraMacMillan-el2kc Co-pay is too far, I wrote it off, if she pays me back it's extra. I've sat in dialysis next to her for hours, hers is a sad life.
I definitely do the Daily Tracking my spending. How did you get Dave Ramsey … free? I shop on Wednesdays and Thursdays for the Senior Citizens Discount. I have a set amount on the Debit Card for food. Thanks Hope and Larry. I enjoy watching.
I have a goal to cut our grocery bill in half. Watching your videos along with other helpful youtubers have inspired me to start a youtube channel. Hoping to take people along with me as I try to do this. We can all help eachother save money on groceries :)
I save a lot by only eating out a couple times a year. I do best when I set up what I'm eating the night before so it's ready to grab for work or when I am ready to eat it. I minimize what I buy that is not on sale and look at weekly ads. I pay extra principle on mortgage payments to save on interest. I track budget (income/expenses) daily and pay bills as they come in so I don't forget to make a payment. I take transit when useful to save on gas.
Our local library has state park passes that can be checked out. We borrow them when we want to have free admission/parking at a state park. We've even used the borrowed state park pass to visit a state park near where we went camping in a different part of our state.
I have a food budget and food preparation plan that is insane. I buy 80% of my food every six weeks. Everything they sell changes every time I buy . Many of the people are there at 6 am and open the sale to 150 people. I get there late at 8 am. Some things sell out off my list and have to redo the meal plan and submit another order to fill in the holes generated by sold out items. I have to buy the extra items when I go to the discount stores that handle the canned and other foods that make the total meals. What is missing is 20% normally and buy that at the grocery store. This gets the food budget down to $25 a week now but after the full conversion of the freezer it could in theory reach $15-20 a week. I have extra cash to make it work because I started at $35 a week down to $25 and could see $20 a week in 2025. That is $1k a year for food. I do food prep differently than Hope. I make single items and freeze them. Then I bolt them together to make meals . I try to eliminate waste off the front end.
@@UndertheMedian I buy things frozen from the meat sale. It looks like it's an Amish and Mennonite event. Then a 1/2 mile down the road a Amish produce store. I bought honey crisp apples not sprayed for $1 a lb and far less for others. Organic valley cream cheese $1.30 each, Jumbo brown farm fresh eggs $3 dz. Then I drive a 1/2 mile down the road to a dented can/over stock Amish store. Tricker treat mixed bag of candy 5lb $4. One gallon bag of chocolate covered peanuts for the neighbor $4, Salsa, chocolate chips for cookies, baked beans big cans 50 cents each, fruit juice but no bulk foods. Now I go a bit farther 3/4 mile and hit the bulk food store and bakery next to it open Saturday. This is an Amish store. I buy Amish butter $3 lb and it's from a farm that is organic. They give away the extra egg whites from the bakery. They also sell cheese ends cheap from a cheese house I passed going to this store. They sell all the standard bulk foods. Then a 1/2 mile down the road I pass Amish Walmart on the loop going home. They stock used, new,over stock of farm/ hardware things and much more. I spent $100 on all the food and after the candy, onion rings were dropped off to my friends the cost was $85 with gas I will call it $90. I leave at 7am and I am home by 1pm. I have everything put away and marked by 2-3 pm. It kills a day for the most part. They have many more stores but this is my main group of stores. Some stores have no light and no AC but wood heat in the winter.
We purchased an 1800 opus and love it. We value your opinion and we’re planning to purchase a couple more and wondered your opinion of whether to get one big or two smaller units. Thanks much. Wish we could chat with you live 😆
Opus is getting ready to put their Mega stations on sale for Black Friday. We're going to be doing a video in a couple of weeks on their extra battery for the Mega 1, 2, & 3 units. Their discounts will really help. If you can afford the Mega 2, that is the one I would recommend. I've already done a video review on that one (a well as the Mega1 & Mega 3) if you are interested in watching it. Do a search within our channel for it and you will find it.
Just received my electric bill from National Grid for October 2024. It was $19.23. Third month in a row it has been less than $20.00. As the weather gets colder and less daylight hours it will increase. I live in rural Upstate Central New York.
I had a freezer full of meat. Chicken, fish, veg just before pandemic lockdown. Everytime i cooked it was batch cooking, anything up to 5 portions. - eat one, maybe put one in the fridge for the following day , put the remainder in the freezer. Make basic portions like minced beef, carrot, onion, which can be used for cottage pie, or add pasta sauce for spaghetti bolognaise. I have a passion for the basic meat and veg mix thickened and served in a large popover (UK Yorkshire pudding). Chicken breasts in red wine or cubed and stir fried ready for curries, sweet and sour, chicken casseroles, . I had enough food for myself for 6 months, and all because I had some money off coupons in pre-christmas brochures from one of our budget supermarkets. I always have a good winter store cupboard of canned and dried food. You never know what the weather is going to bring in the UK. E❤
#7 "Speeding??? LOL I guess you will feel like money is zooming out of your life if you don't keep an eye on your spending. Thanks for the chuckle... 😁
I appreciate all of your tips, but I cannot possibly make so many lists and spreadsheets! I don't even know how to make a spreadsheet or read one. LOL I can barely get my housework and laundry and grocery shopping done. There's no way I could sit down for that amount of time and make a list!
The hurricane took my power the city got political whenever it came time to turn it back on. The neighbor's tree was responsible for the outage which involves both of us same day we were ready for service the offender was allowed power I was given a political discourse. I'll probably end up selling this land. I paid $12,000 for it 6 years ago.😊 Ask me I done got my use out of it. They want to push me around I'm going to have to go out to West Texas to do it.

Larry moving. I saw his glasses.
Went doctor today, said i got fluids on lungs
I hope he or she is treating that.
I am sorry. Praying for healing.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Praying for you.
@mistycharlesehley4544 think it's infection, antibiotics and I will be okay.
