Summary of Deborah Harold's Depression Era Frugality

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 You can use depression-era hacks to stretch your food budget. You can save money when you shop and make your food go further, grow a garden, meal plan, and stock up on a depression-era pantry. #2 When it comes to meat, you can go without it from time to time. This may not seem like a way to save on meat, but it is a practical solution if you need to make a cut in your overall food budget. You can also check for peel-off stickers on the meats to get instant money off your purchase. #3 One way to save money on dairy products is by searching for coupons. You'll often find coupons for things like sour cream, yogurt, butter, and cottage cheese. If you do find a coupon or sale deal, be sure to stock up as much as possible. #4 Seafood is another expensive food that you can eat on a budget. Consider going for the cheaper varieties, such as white, flaky fish such as pollock. Canned seafood is a great option if you are going to add it to recipes such as dips, spreads, and salads.
