Monday means meal planning time. I love blogging about my meal plan, because then I can’t lose it!
I plan for 2 weeks at a time, and I post my meal plans every other Monday right here at Medium Sized Family. So you can always come here for ideas that make your planning simpler. If you like, you can look through my whole list of menu plans for ideas.

Life has been very busy in our home lately. We have 4 children playing on different baseball/softball teams. That means games or practices every night of the week.
This requires a whole lot of planning ahead to keep things frugal! Isn’t planning such a key in saving money?

Welcome to another frugal Friday! I always like to celebrate this lovely day by contemplating 5 ways we’ve saved money this week. If you’d like to read back through the series, you can find it here.
Of course, we save money in many more than 5 ways each week! But since I’m trying to track unique ideas that I haven’t necessarily talked about on previous Fridays, it makes this a bit of a challenge.
With no access to public water, a cistern, or a well, our family has an unusual perspective on how to save money on your water bill.
Several years ago, and after much searching, we found a house that seemed perfect for our family. It was in a quiet area and had a barn (a must for me!). We loved it!
Before placing an offer on the home, we had an inspection done. We learned that the home wasn’t on a public water supply, but it had a cistern and a well. This didn’t concern us too much.
In fact, I thought we’d save money on our water bill because we could get it naturally and wouldn’t have to pay for it.
Meal planning is one of those things that we know can save us a ton of money. But it’s still a dreaded chore for many of us!
Planning for 2 weeks at a time makes this chore something we can do less frequently. If you like, you can look through my whole list of menu plans for ideas.
Happy Friday! I hope you’ve found some ways to put some frugal into your week. There are so many different ways to save little bits of money all week long. And we all know that those little bits can really add up!
This week we’ve been making some choices and moves towards our BHAG of paying off debt. If you missed the April check in, you can check out that post and see how our payoff plan is going.
I'm Jamie, and I want to help you afford a beautiful life with your family. Learn more.
