Save Money on Groceries

Tuesday, April 7, 2009
There was a great article on StarTribune.com this morning about two local organizations that put together food packages for discounted prices. These packages are not any form of welfare, but are just a good way to save money in a tight economy. Anyone is eligible to purchase the food packs, and there is no sign-up or registration. On average, by purchasing one of these food packs a consumer can save 50% from the regular grocery store prices.

There are a few different types of packages including a basic box, meat box, light box, vegetarian box, etc. I haven't taken a look at it in person yet, but to me it sounds like it would be worth it. For more information here are the links to both of the organizations, who have multiple pick-up locations around the metro area.
