We are both out of work but we still like to eat good. We are inspired by the shows on Food Network. We go Thur our sales papers and coupons to get the best deals on staple items for pantry and fridge. Then we hit in store specials (reduced meats,produce,discontinued items). We come up with tasty meals on a limited budget.
