Stretch food to shrink food budget A magazine writer once wrote that I stretched a penny until it screamed. One of the areas that I love to stretch is food, adding this and that to make more. Our first reader shares her favorite money-stretch- ing product. SAUCY SAVINGS. I like to buy Green Giant-brand boxed veg- etables in their own sauce. There's always extra sauce in these veg- gies, so I stock up when they're on sale, buying matching plain frozen veggies, too. I then cook up both brands of veggies and mix them together after they're cooked. This really works well and gives us lots of saucy vegetables. -- Rose, Indi- ana RECYCLE INK CAR- TRIDGES. At the Office Depot near me, I can recycle my ink car- tridges. Not only am I doing some- thing for the planet, I am also get- ting a $2 credit per cartridge, up to 10 each month. Often I receive dollars-off coupons along with my credits, too. -- Lee, California ROACHES, GONE! I was told by a professional exterminator that they can't guarantee roaches are not going to return even after treat- ment. I heard about a product called Roach Prufe by Copper Brite and decided to try it. It's boric acid powder, easy to use and has no odor. I have cleared three heavily infested houses with one big can of Roach Prufe. In each house, I applied the product throughout and also put it in an empty dishwash- ing detergent bottle and then "puffed" it into otherwise inac- cessible areas. Roach Prufe seems to discourage ants and spi- ders, too. It's important to note that it isn't safe for pets. -- Jackie, Arkansas WD-40 TO THE RESCUE. WD-40 is awesome for getting stuff off bumpers, like magnets or bumper stickers. Just spray it on and wait five minutes. You can peel it off with your fingers. -- Jen, North Carolina MORTAGE PAYOFF ingredient cake I used to make. Actually, it was two different two- ingredient cakes: 1) Follow direc- tions on the fudge cake box, plus stir in one can of cherry pie filling. 2) Follow directions on the spice cake box, plus stir in one can of apple pie fill- ing. Bake as instructed. These cakes are so moist and delicious that they don't need frosting. -- Bon- nie, Wisconsin MORE-THAN-CERE- Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate ADVICE. We paid off our mort- gage years ago and would recom- mend to anyone doing this to make sure the mortgage company files the paperwork necessary to release the lien. When we sold our house, the process was delayed when we discovered that we did not have a clear title even though several years had passed since the mortgage had been paid off. -- Roberta, email TWO-INGREDIENT CAKES. The recipe for fizzy cake in this column brought to mind a two- AL BAGS. I have another use for the wax-paper type bags in cereal boxes. When I make hamburger patties to freeze, I cut the bag into squares and put between the patties. When I store cookies or other baked goods, I put sheets of this paper between the baked goods. -- Beanie, Nebraska Would you like to send a tip to Mary?
