Pediasure

So as many of you know my 2 1/2 year old son has a condition called Alagille Syndrome that affects his liver and his heart. He is very small for his age, only 22 lbs right now. So the Drs are trying to find ways to be able to help him with his growth stimulation. They have said that he is eating very well on his own and the dietitions are very happy with his consumption. So, they are going to try him on Pediasure, drinking 2 bottles a day in addition to his diet. I went to the store to look at the Pediasure and pick some up for him and noticed that at my local store they are $10.49/6 pack of bottles. So with him drinking 2 a day that would be 14 bottles a week, so approx. $25/week in Pediasure alone! So what I am asking is if anyone has seen any good deals on Pediasure or if there are any coupons out there could you please let me know? We are going to talk to our insurance company to see if they can help us out at all, but who knows. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Busy Mom Menu

The Busy Mom Menu is our most popular menu option. Based on the same planning techniques as the Basic Weekly Menu, the Busy Mom Menu includes Meal Makeover options to lower fat and carbs as well as nutrition data. We are in the process of adding dietary exchanges to recipes.

Frugal Mom Menu

The Frugal Mom Menu is a popular weekly menu plan designed to help moms save money in these uncertain financial times with delicious meals based on frugal choices. These weekly menu plans will give you delicious dinners that include recipes, grocery list, and a cost analysis of each meal. Total meal costs for the Frugal Mom Menu are 20-40% lower than the Busy Mom Menu.

Food Ministry Menu

Based on the projected contents of the Angel Food Ministry food boxes, the Food Ministry Menus feature 2 meal plans, each with 7-9 menus, using almost all of the box ingredients (items like cereal may be left off so they can be used individually). Each meal plan includes a shopping list for ingredients not included in the food boxes.

Please go and check out these great menus and the deals that they are offering for June only! I have been using these menus for almost 2 years now and absolutely love them. Using them has helped me really save money and doing the menu planning through this site is where I started my money saving journey!
