There was a great article of interest today on CNN's website. It dealt with how family's are coping with soaring food and grocery prices and showed how one family is dealing with inflation.

One mother interviewed decided to save money by making her own laundry detergent. " Pond, 26, a stay-at-home mom with an almost 8-month old daughter, does four loads of laundry every other day. "Detergent is very expensive, so I make my own," she said. She grates natural soap, boils it, adds Borax, baking soda and essential oils, and lets it cool overnight."

They also suggested some methods previously mentioned in articles on this blog such as growing your own vegetables, cooking at home and hoarding sales items. All which can add up to big time grocery savings.
