The Captain and I often run into great deals on peppers bought in bulk at the military commisary, but it is way too much to use up before they go bad, so we freeze them. You can do the same thing with onion! I like to cut them up in the way I use most or do combinations and make separate bags. Click here to go to an excellent post on how to do it!
Learning the tricks of seasonal shopping by knowing what items go on sale during which month is a great way to plan for purchases and save lots of money. June is known as "the wedding month" and also means that those items typically purchased as wedding presents, such as dishes, go on sale in June. It stands to reason that you can get a great deal on a gym membership in June since everyone has long forgotten their New Year's Resolutions to get in shape. Since Father's Day happens in June, so do the sales for tools and hardware! Who wants to paint in June? Apparently, not many people do and while sales of paint are low, the stores will mark paint and related products down to make some sales. Stock up on those painting supplies!
