To do Goals

There are a few things I need to do over the next two months that will enable me to do OAMC- Once a month cooking- stockpiling, organizing etc. and thought if I made a list on here I would be held accountable.

1. Stockpile coupons- online printing, ordering from Ebay, I personally like TheCouponMaster.com, Newspapers. I haven't tried to trade or joined a coupon train yet. I don't think I'm organized or experienced enough for this yet, but maybe in the future.

2. Get a stand-up freezer. Absolutely necessary for Once A Month Cooking and for stockpiling fridge foods and I don't have one. I'll probably try to find one from Craigslist.com and will keep it in the locking storage room outside of the apartment in the porch/sitting area.

3. Organize pantry- along with this I am converting the entire outside storage room to a large pantry area. There simply isn't any room in the apartment to stockpile the way I want/need to and we have a garage to keep stuff in so I think it will work. Currently it is filled with boxes, but that will change once I can get dh to help me move everything out:)

4. Get a food saver of some sort. They are expensive, but since I want to freeze everything I think it is worth it. I haven't researched brands or how it even works yet, so I don't know which is the best deal. I'll post once I get that far.

Hmm... it's all I can think of this second but will add to it, of if anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them.
