Are you feeling the post-holiday belt crunch?   I know our budget is a bit tighter each winter.   One of my favorite ways to save is through hounding our local discount grocery store (aka Bent and Dents).   Most of the food is at or near its expiration date, and many of the cans or boxes are beat up, but often I can find food for half the price it would be at the regular grocery store.   Be sure to check the food before you eat it to make sure that it hasn’t spoiled, and enjoy watching your grocery expenses shrink!   I hope one of these stores are near you!   If one is missing from this list, let me know in the comments and I will update it!
