FRUGAL FOODS TO KEEP IN YOUR FOOD PANTRY OR REFRIGERATOR

If you stock your food pantry and refrigerator with enough shelf-stable products, when your budget gets tight, you will have enough food to get you through those tough financial times, like those last two weeks of each month. The following are suggestions of products to keep in stock at home, or even at work if you have a kitchen there. You should also keep a sufficient supply of cases of bottled water or buy a water filter to attach to your kitchen sink faucet to have as much pure filtered water as you want, and True Lemon individual packets of 100 or True Lime individual packets of 100 or Coconut Powder to mix into your water to drink daily to stay hydrated. To stay hydrated, divide your current weight by two. The answer is how many ounces pure filtered water you need to drink in 24 hours to stay hydrated under normal conditions. True Lemon also makes a large variety of flavors to add to your pure filtered water that Amazon.com sells online and can be delivered to your home.
