We've always done things like this... we buy huge packs of meat and bring them home and break them down into smaller portions just to save a few cents a pound on it..... when you raise 4 kids, you cut and save where you can. lol
We do most of our cooking at home now, where we used to eat out more frequently. This is more for our own health benefits than anything though........ since I was diagnosed as being Diabetic, I have to be really careful about what goes into my mouth and I've made the kids start being more cautious as well. We rarely buy premade candy and cakes anymore, I make them here so I can know more about what is going in it.
Ok, not to mention, with my family, I can't hardly go out and eat without spending $30-40, even if it is on hamburgers....... eating out has gotten insanely costly these days.
