Frugal Fridays




This morning as I was browsing the many blogs I visit, I came across one that blogs a frugal tip each Friday. What a great idea! Especially since we are trying desperately to cut the grocery budget these days. So I wanted to share with you guys.

One of the tips is to make your own laundry detergent. I think I may try this one day. Will have to see how it reacts with DH's skin-it'll be great if it works because the special detergent we buy for him is not cheap. DH has also mentioned line drying our clothes-hmm, not sure about that one. Maybe when we get in a new house I'll think about it more.

Another tip was freezing bananas in the skin. I have heard of freezing fruit but never bananas. J likes bananas but they usually end up spoiling in the fruit bowl and I have to throw them out. So I'll try this tip soon.

Let me know how the banana trick works. We have that problem too. I do know that it's good for making smoothies, which I would make more of it it didn't cost so much to buy strawberries!
