Skint and super skint meals list
The four rules below are listed to help you save money:
- Store cupboard
You always need a basic store cupboard of food, always keep it stocked up, it’s your life line. - Seasonal
Buy fruit and veg that is in season it’s always going to be cheaper than out of season. - Shop around
No one shop has all your bargain food under one roof. - Skint
Fresh vegetables for all year round:
Potatoes, carrots, cabbage and onions. Not fresh but keep a bag of frozen peas in the freezer
