Kansas City, Mo. — One of the questions I am asked the most is how to get healthy stuff and still save money. This week is a GREAT example!! Keep in mind that It’s not convenient and takes time. But I look at it like it’s my second job. (I save way more than I’d make actually working a second job. I know because I’ve done it. Plus my husband and I SOMEHOW bought a house where every single store I need is on my way home from work … so I don’t spend any extra cash on gas. (Unless you count pulling in and out of a parking lot.)
