An ALDI Grand Opening

A couple of weeks ago a brand-new ALDI opened in our town, and if you’ve read our previous series on ALDI, you’ll know that it’s our favorite grocery store–you might even call us ALDI superfans. 🙂 Disappointingly, we were out of town the on the day of the grand opening, or else we totally would […]

Easiest Cheapest Granola Recipe Ever

March 27, 2016 By Deb 17 Comments

Easiest Cheapest Granola

As you’ve probably read in some of our other posts, Al and I typically spend less than $60/month on food. One of the ways we do this is by making a lot of food from scratch. But what about breakfast? Oatmeal is a great, inexpensive option, but sometimes it’s nice to have a box of […]

Why We Don’t Buy Costco Membership

September 23, 2014 By Deb 14 Comments

Costco Membership

A question we get a lot here at Saving the Crumbs is: “Do you think Costco membership is worth it?” It’s a valid question since buying wholesale definitely jives with the crumb saver mentality but putting down $55 (our month’s food budget) just to be part of a club makes me stop to consider how […]
