I love bargains! And my husband knows it.
He has said at least a dozen times, “No one likes a bargain like my wife!”
Here is my latest bargain.
This is 30 pounds of hamburger I purchased for less than $2 a pound! It had just been marked down because the expiration date was near.
At first I just took a couple of pounds. Then a couple more. Then I decided to take all they had.
- I had the freezer space.
- We had money available for groceries.
- I knew my family would eat it quickly, especially since it’s summer and we love to grill.
- It was a store I shopped regularly so I knew the quality.
For our family this was indeed a great bargain.
What would have made it a foolish purchase?
- If we didn’t have the money so I decided to charge it. The interest could eat up any savings.
- We didn’t have freezer space.
- It was something my family wouldn’t eat regularly.
- I was unfamiliar with the brand and it could turn out to be something we didn’t enjoy.
Here is a fun article I wrote about how well my husband knows my love for a bargain.

I LOVE those kind of sales! One store I shop at regularly must expect me to come in when their bacon goes on major discount. I buy at least 10 pounds, if not more. I do get funny looks from other customers. But it’s BACON! Congratulations on your killer bargain!

Me too Sarah! It feels good to know you are fixing less expensive meals for your family but with quality product.
