I learn so much. Here is another great batch of creative ideas from your fellow cheap- skates. DEODORIZE THE VACU- UM. I have a couple of bottles of the plug-in room deodorizers, but the scent is too overpowering. My vacuum cleaner is a Rainbow, which sucks the dirt into a basin of water instead of into a bag. When I ran out of the liquid fragrances used in the vacuum, I decided to try the deodorizers. I held the plug-in bot- tle upside down over the water basin and released a few drops of the fragrance. Now when I vacuum, a light scent remains in every room. -- Barb, Michigan BUYING FROM THE STOCKPILE. Back when $10 actually bought something at the grocery store, I would set aside $10 of my grocery budget each week to buy "advertised specials." If there was nothing that we used, I would keep the $10 and add it to the following week's "advertised specials." Doing this enabled me to build up a nice stockpile. At home, when I took something from the stash, I would "pay" for the item. Doing this helped build our stockpile budget. I did the Special to the DN Two Tehama County teens were recently selected as the 2012-13 Tehama County 4-H All Stars. This award is the highest recognition given in the county for 4-H members. It recognizes their project and leadership accomplishments and provides them with the opportunity for countywide leadership responsibilities. This year's recipients are Rebah Heino and Katie Conner. Rebah Heino, is in her fifth year as a 4-H member in Manton 4-H Club. Rebah believes one of her most impor- tant leadership roles she has completed thus far was in 2010; she was a member of the leadership team for 4-H Youth Camp, as a Kitchen Assistant. During her year as an All Star, Rebah would like to take 4-H out into the commu- nity more and in our local schools. Rebah‚s major 4-H pro- jects include: Dairy and Pack Goats, Community Service, and Arts and Crafts. Along with her 4-H projects, Rebah has been chosen as a Leadership Team Member for the upcoming 4-H Youth Camp. This will be her third year attending camp as a staff member. Outside of 4-H she is an active member of the North Val- ley Dairy Goat Association and she volunteers at her local after school program. Rebah is a junior at Aja-Sammati home school and would someday like to be a Pastry Chef. Rebah's parents are Michelle and Rob Heino of Manton.

I wanted to lower my food bill, so I stopped eating out. Next, I stopped buying snack foods and sodas. Those two things decreased my food bill dramatical- ly. I stopped buying processed foods and started cooking every- thing from scratch. I shaved so much money off my food bill that now I can afford organic chicken breasts, and I'm still ahead of the game. Doing all of this took getting used to, but my monthly grocery bill went way down, I lost weight and I'm a lot healthier, too. -- Frances, New Mexico same thing with freezer items. We're retired now, but I still do the same thing with our freezer stockpile. It means I always have a stash of money when a good sale comes up. -- Denise, email BENEFITS OF Every year, my family buys a quarter of a cow.
