To be honest with me, I have found that by shopping around I can cut down on some of the items... I know when iga will put out some mark downs, I know where to look for coles and woolworths mark downs, and find this way I can on the whole, carefuly save a bit, with making sure I can use up what I buy. I notice that all the big shops do put out milk at reduced prices, and this is when I t will be just 2 litres, as I like fresh milk for coffee, made with all milk, and when I get it for one dollar for 2 litres at times, it is a good saving.. We then can have cereal as well, and I can make pancakes and make it go even further...I know the farmers need to be able to sell their milk, feed the animals, and survive themselves. saw last night that coles and woolworths are bringing down some prices of bread, but that a firm called Mias is only making 10 cents a loaf, and if they cut their price they will go out of business which is not fair. I checked the amount of slices in some loaves, and find that iga has a loaf for 99c. which has more slices than the 85c. loaf of coles, so it is worth it to pay the little extra for more bread in the loaf. I guess this is the only way we on pensions can survive. We dont use the heaters, but I make up hot water bags, and we use those for our legs when watching tv of a night. . we then can put our feet on them in bed after.
