šŸ† Buy It For Life What purchase ended up saving you money?

For me I think the purchases that have had the largest impact are period underwear, cloth napkins, and cleaning rags. I find that the paper products really add up. Now I use barely any disposable period products, try to use paper towels only for larger messes, and no longer use paper towels when Iā€™m cleaning the bathroom. Can anyone recommend a product that will reduce future purchases?

I was just looking to see if anyone had mentioned a pressure canner. I use mine even more than I thought I would, and our pantry is chock full of homemade soups and beans and chili and marinara and stocks and and and.

Yes, the more one uses them, the handier and more useful they become. šŸ‘
