Do any of you cityfolks garden to minimize your produce bill? What about canning?
I didn't think people still did this, but I got this tip from the Tightwad Gazette, and I have no idea where to get more information on this. It's not like I can ask my neighbors or anybody I know. They all get their food from "normal" places like the grocery store
Ahh the things we learn from this board. On another note, one thing I don't scrimp on is the internet. I used to go to the library but that became too inconvinient and I was able to negotiate a lower rate with the phone company. FYI, One way to do this is to threaten to leave to a competitor unless they have a better option. If you are good client they will want to hold on to your business. Go to the manager's manager until you get the best price.
