Bulk food savings -

If I can be tech-savvy enough to figure out how to do that. And speaking of bulk foods and giant electricity bills, we shut off the small window unit that was in the sun room where we keep the buckets of grains. It is now approximately degrees in there at all times.

I was worried that critters would get into the buckets hey, I'm not paranoid, have you seen Alabama bugs?! so I decided for the meantime to store the buckets in our large chest freezer. I can't imagine anything more sad than finding fifty pounds of wheat have been compromised by bugs.

I also decided to store the new bag of rice in the freezer in smaller ziplocs , just in case the humidity or bugs could cause damage.

And on a side-note, I think it's important to point out that security be it financial, emotional, or food-storage-oriented can be found nowhere else but in our Heavenly Father. I'm slowly learning this lesson, as I've had to let go of so many these past few months.

It's a painful process. Do any of you readers have a wonderful way that YOU save up for your bulk food purchases? How do you make it work with your budget? this has been very difficult for me and like you i use our tax return to purchase meat but grains have been more difficult.

now that you no longer live on the west coast I assume you do not order from azure standard and curious who you use now? Oh how I wish that Azure delivered to the deep South!

A few will deliver wheat and such, but none have the selection and price of Azure. While I can find them for cheaper online, shipping is a killer!

they have several co-ops in Alabama, one is in Mobile. They are 5 gallon buckets with Gamma lids. I think I have a couple of extras you can have. That way you can free up your freezer for other stuff.

Oh I feel for you girl!! I am a new SAHM and am trying to get used to a new, smaller budget for a growing family of 4, 5 with a baby on the way! But God WILL provide, my family may have to eat some out of the ordinary things for meals, but we will be ok!!

It helps!! I recently bought oz. Do you know if your area has any local buying clubs? We have one in the area for meat and that has been helpful in pricing as well. For us, this is the time of the year that everybody is up to their eyeballs in zucchini! I am sure this may ruffle a few feathers with some readers, but does your husband hunt or fish?

This could relieve a little of the meat costs and add to the bulk purchases. Especially if he can clean and butcher it himself. I support hunting when done by respecting nature, abiding by the conservation rules, and utilizing as much of the animal as possible. Our freezer is stocked with venison, ducks, and geese every year.

We do pay an excellent, local sausage shop to make a variety of sausages from a portion of the meat each year…this is a large bulk purchase as they add a percentage of pork fat to the lean wild game.

I hope to eventually learn to do this myself to save even more! All this greatly reduces our need to purchase meat. Some years, all I purchase is a bit of chicken and some fish to supplement variety around the wild game.
