We love spreadable butter in our house.  It’s easy to spread right from the refrigerator, melts quickly, and tastes wonderful.  But the price can be costly for the spreads made from real butter.  My favorite brand costs over $3.00 a tub! After looking at the ingredients, I realized just how easy it is to make your own homemade version. This is a good way to stretch your dollar in the dairy case.

Buy your real butter and oil when there’s a sale, and don’t forget to use your coupons for extra savings.

This list contains 7 of the items in our kitchens that many of us are storing incorrectly.  Storing food correctly can save us money with less wasted food.  Food stored properly tastes better and lasts longer.  If you got all ten right—pat yourself on the back.
