Leave the pre-packaged foods in the store.

This is another “gotcha” in a grocery store.  A lasagna consisting of mostly noodles and tomato sauce costs several times more than making your own from scratch (and actually adding some real vegetables!)  Haul out those cookbooks that you have sitting on your shelf and start cooking.  Don’t make just one.  As long as you have the mess, make two.  One for tonight for supper and one to put in the freezer.
