Money Saving Ideas:

Saving on Meat
I keep an eye out for sales on meat and then stock up when I find a good deal. I won't cut out
meat to save on groceries, protein is important and its my favorite way to get it. I use ground
turkey a lot. I can get it (in a roll) for anywhere from .80 to $1.50 and it goes anywhere ground
beef would go and is better for you. I use it instead of beef in tacos, hamburgers, spaghetti,
anything. And no one even notices the difference.  -- Member MandaRenee

Frugal Vacations
We prefer to do day trips. A trip to the zoo, drive to a state park and spend the day, explore other
areas of the state, that type of thing. You save tons this way and still get away!
-- Member Happymom

Beauty on a Budget
I find that Vaseline works GREAT as a lip balm! It not only protects your lips from the elements,
but it also conditions them and makes them softer...and a little shiny! A travel sized tub costs about
80 cents and lasts over a year.  A friend of mine also discovered that vaseline also works well on
diaper rashes. -- Member Lucky_Mom

What's Cooking:  Cream Cheese Squares

2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup margarine, melted
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350
Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
Press one can of the crescent rolls into the bottom of the prepared pan. In a medium bowl,
mix together the cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Spread
over the crescent layer. Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and lay them on top of the
cream cheese layer. Do not press down. Pour the melted margarine over the entire pan. Combine
the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the top.  Bake for 25 to 30 minutes
in the preheated oven, or until the top is crisp and golden.
