I especially like the idea of saving loose change and letting the kids decide what charity to give it to. <br /><br />In Christ,<br /><br />Susan MontgomerySusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16153729976166912111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7515514263494461015.post-56278061171280402782011-07-20T19:11:09.461-05:002011-07-20T19:11:09.461-05:00Hi Cheryl,

My dad likes peanut butter, so I"ll have to tell him we can reuse the jars ;) :) Now he'll insist that buying peanut butter is for the economic good of our household and country :) :) Have a great day :) :) Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)Heather's Blog-o-ramahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05490555197097928275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7515514263494461015.post-62490006485233546762011-07-20T16:41:27.406-05:002011-07-20T16:41:27.406-05:00Thanks for the great ideas and tips!

It's one of my favorite places!

I'm going to have to make some notes and check out that other blog, too.

I am hoping that we will get off dial-up soon, and then I will have more liberty to check out sites like Marmee's Pantry, which sounds simply wonderful.<br /><br />I do the "free soup" thing also. Another thing I do is to keep a large zip-top bag in the freezer into which I place all chicken bones, scraps from trimming chicken, odds and ends of chicken broth and skin, etc. Sounds disgusting, but when the bag is full I empty it into a pot (or even the crockpot) and add celery, onion, carrots and garlic, plus peppercorns, and simmer it into a wonderful chicken broth which I then strain and freeze in quart yogurt containers to use when recipes call for chicken broth.<br /><br />I save p.b.jars too, though mine are the glass kind, and use them for everything from homemade salad dressing to leftovers. I recently read (just this morning, actually) on Heloise that one should be careful in reusing p.b. jars in case anyone has a peanut allergy. That's not a problem in my household, but certainly worth considering.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing -- love the ideas!Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7515514263494461015.post-5613294073777238292011-07-20T06:42:11.854-05:002011-07-20T06:42:11.854-05:00What a great idea today's post was!
