What are some grocery items people buy during the holidays when on a frugal budget?
Thats of course without any of the other ingredients.
Canned Pumpkin
One of the greatest things about canned pumpkin?
you’re free to use it in many types of meals.
Canned pumpkin is versatile for pies, soups and even pasta sauces (my personal favorite use!
), said Sarah Bond, a food scientist, nutritionist and recipe developer atLive Eat Learn.
Its cheaper than buying fresh squash and saves a ton of time on prep.
Stock up before the season for the best deals.

King Arthur flour may get 5-stars across the board, but its also twice as much.
These, Bond said, are a budget-friendly lifesaver during the holidays.
Potatoes are incredibly versatile and inexpensive, Bond said.
They can be used for mashed potatoes, roasted dishes or soups.
Cabbage
Like potatoes, cabbage is affordable around $1.50 per head, according to Bond.
Its often overlooked but is a great money-saving vegetable for holiday meals.
