Food Storage

Part of couponing is to get a nice food storage. I am pretty sure I have done that. I think I might now have too much cereal. But it is good, because I think if I use my food storage to plan my weekly menus, I should cut down a lot on my grocery bill, which I already have down to $300.00 a month!!

My Dad made me this cool food storage rack, and I just love it! I wish I had a bigger storage area so that I could have him make me more shelves.

The top has rows of Cereal. That first row is two large boxes of Lucky Charms and then all cookie crips (6 boxes), the second row is assorted cereals, the third row is 6 boxes of total and then cocoa puffs ontop and in front, fourth row is assorted cheerios, and fith row is trix from top to bottom. Then fruit snack stuff, mac & Chz, and condiments and oil.

My lower shelf has toothpaste galore. It has two rows of hamburger helper, some rice, poptarts, grahm crackers, fruit, crackers, a row of brownies, noodles, spaghetti sauce, corn muffin mixes and more.

i love the rotating can rack that my dad made on this. It is so wonderful. I have cream of chicken soupo, chili, cream of mushroom soup, tomato, oranges, evaporated milk, lots of pasta, corn, chicken broth, ravioli, spahettios, oranges, evaporated milk, beans, more spahetti sauce, soup, pineapple, baked beans, and a few more.

We are also stocked up on toilet paper!! We have got plenty of deoderant, bars of soap

Shampoo, conditioner, body wash and shaving gel

This just goes to show that couponing really does work. I had some of the canned goods before, but the rest I have built mainly with coupons. I also have buckets of flour and sugar. I really need to work on rice and wheat ... I just don't know how much we would use those regularly.
