You wouldn’t believe the number of unpublished drafts I’ve got stacked up, waiting for their time. I thought a post lining up some of my goals for Cheepie next year might help me sift through them and make something like a schedule that I could follow. God knows the ‘post the deals once a week when I feel like it’ plan pretty much let things go to pot!
Remember when I did the meal plan for each week, and posted it and gave myself imaginary points on how ‘good’ I did for each day’s dinners? Yeah, we’re not doing that again. That was harsh! There are many topics I would like to get more work done on, so I’m going to get them down in this post. See one you like? Let me know, so I can bump it up on the priority list. Got a suggestion? Share away–I’m open to thoughts on this.
- Store Reviews by location
- Super-cheap dinners based on the sales
- Unit Pricing
- Happy Hours deals that can be a dinner out
- Farmers Markets / Alternate grocery sources
My hope is to have the ad roundup posted each week, and then pick one of the other topics to post about as well. I’ve had a cabbage/potato/onion cheap weekday dinner post hanging around waiting for a photo for so long! I’ve taken so many unit pricing disaster photos, but haven’t shared them yet. Then there’s my personal ranking of stores, which I remember every time I try to leave the Brodie HEB.
I think 2019 is going to be a great year for Cheepie, and I hope you stick around and find it useful!
Fried Munster cheese. Why is this not done more often? 
2018’s drink was the Moscow Mule. Applications being accepted for 2019. 
Beets. I didn’t see it coming, but this year was the one where I became a beet-lover. 
Still laugh whenever I think of this. 
This one banana, ticked at the world. 
These were just the prettiest, sweetest figs. 
Gluten-free Brazilian cheese bread, so much cheaper when home-made! 
Throwback packaging with futuristic pricing. $1 more per can! 
Who decided this? They were wrong. 
I can’t even remember what flavor this was because it is so unrelentingly gray. 
Three pounds of boil-in-a-bag goulash. Who buys this? I mean, I think it’s boil-in-a-bag. The label can’t be the only boilable part, right?
I know who buys this. 
$10 for baking spray is too much. Even if it is duck fat. Also: I feel like this would clog. 
Cheese Glut 2: Electric Boogaloo. 
This was just next to the register when I went to quickiemart for coffee. There were different flavors. It was tough to cope. 
My favorite, a Christmas gift of cheese! 
I finally got my coffee routine, bean, and gear all sorted out this year. Whew. 
Fiesta, I love you.
I came up with three ways to cook this giant daikon radish. I’m very, very sure I do not like daikon radishes. 
I have read a lot of grocery circulars. Probably more than anyone not actively involved in their production. This wins them all.
