[quote=Anonymous]OP -- if one is organized, then cooking at home from scratch is certainly cheaper. I grew up in a big family with 8 kids so you could say "necessity was the mother of invention" for us. See what is on sale a particular week -- sometimes it's buy one chicken and get one free or buy one pork loin and get one free. Use your Safeway, Giant, CVS, Walgreens cards (whatever ones you use). Make a meal and freeze a meal. We just bought a $22 brisket which was very extravagant for us. Sounds expensive and it was for us, but we made "meat and potatoes" one night. Made a beef brisket soup the next. And, had nice brisket and cheese sandwiches for lunch on the next day. It was only a few pounds of meat but we still have some left. I was never into cooking, but once I tried it, I found it very simple. We keep a computer in our kitchen. That way I can google recipes by inserting the items I have on hand and then find what dishes I can make.[/quote]
