My friends who struggle the most put barriers into almost every situation, in fact it has inspired me to do a post!Notes From The Frugal Trencheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00047687598677272569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933097612306343473.post-50196934726855400362009-03-17T12:34:00.000-06:002009-03-17T12:34:00.000-06:00this is one of the reasons I was so insistent on p...this is one of the reasons I was so insistent on putting leftovers in clear plastic containers in the fridge. You might think I'm being silly, but I honestly believe that not being able to see the food in the container just by glancing at it makes you less likely to pull the container out of the fridge and actually eat what's in it. It also makes you less likely to pull the container and throw it out once that food you haven't eaten goes bad. In the short run, you save money on containers by reusing old margarine containers, but in the long run, that savings is negated by all the leftover food that gets tossed insteadof being used. I cut up all my veggies right when I get home from the grocery store too. Otherwise I'll be lazy when I'm actually hungry and just grab a bag of chips instead.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351612317621113233noreply@blogger.com
