My Frugal List: 2nd half of September 2019

Tomatoes are coming in like crazy. I have been using them up as fast as I can. 

I dehydrated a bunch.

I put them in a jar I had and added olive oil. They went into the fridge. 

 I cooked the rest of the tomatoes that I had at the time. I made pasta for dinner that night and I still had 3 containers for future, easy meals. They all went into the freezer. 

I went to Aldi for milk and pumpkins. Pumpkins are $2.99 each this week. I got 4. They kids don't care about going pumpkin picking anymore. As long as we go apple picking I am told. We have gone apple picking twice already and are hoping to get a third time in soon. I will cook the pumpkins after Halloween. 

I made cinnamon apples one morning. We were out of apple syrup so I cooked up the cores and peels to make some. It is so easy. 

I got a little over a jars worth. Hubby used some on his waffles the next morning. 

I cleaned out the fridge. I love when it sparkles. 

I got lots of great sales and markdowns. I used coupons and Ibotta to help stock my pantry for the winter. 

I am still dehydrating herbs. 

Hubby did an oil change on his truck. We do our own yard work. It takes time but saves us money. Hubby and I have been going on lots of walks and have even been riding our bikes. All of it is free exercise. 

What frugal things have you been doing lately?
