How To Cut Your Grocery Costs By 10% or more - Debt Consolidation

by Kirk Carlson on June 25, 2012

Woman with groceries and register tapeIt seems to us that our grocery bill gets higher every month. There are only three of us but were probably spending better than $600 a month on ?groceries.?

The reason I put the word groceries? in quotes is because what a lot of people don?t think about is how much of our grocery bills are nonfood items. In our case, there may be only 2 adults and one child in the house but there are also three dogs that consume a total of 14 cans of dog food a week. If we were to subtract that from our $600 grocery bill, we would probably find it?s actually much closer to $550 a month. And if we subtracted everything we spend on laundry detergents, shampoos and other health and beauty products, our true grocery bill would probably be less than $400 a month.

Become a coupon junkie

The surest way to cut your grocery bill is by using as many coupons as you can get your hands on. We?ve seen many coupons that can save you as much as $.50 or even $1.00 on items that you would buy anyway. If you have a computer you can go online and find printable coupons from the stores where you shop (such as Kroger?s or Target) or from sites like The Coupon Clippers (the couponclippers.com) where you can buy coupons in bulk. For example, if you have a baby and use a lot of diapers you could buy 10 coupons and save nearly $10 on your next 10 purchases.

Make it a game

Some families actually make a game out of coupons and give a prize to the family member who finds the best or most coupons a week. Don?t think for a minute that it?s not worth using coupons and save just $.50 on an item as this can eventually grow into a much larger amount than you might imagine. We know families who are saving as much as $20 a week simply by using coupons.

Plan your menus around the ?specials?

Look for coupons or BOGOs (buy one, get one) on food items that you can plan menus around. As an example of this, if you find an especially good price on chicken or pork, plan a meal around these meats. You can surround the chicken or pork with vegetables that are on sale (or have coupons) and put together a nice meal for $7 or less?and feed a family of four.

Make a list and stick to it

One of the biggest mistakes people make in grocery shopping is to do it without a list. While you might think that you can just go to the store and choose the items you will need for the following three or five days, I can promise one of two things will happen. You will either forget five or six important items, which will mean yet another trip to the store. Or you will end up buying a lot of ?impulse? items. It?s really important to figure out your menus for the next few days, make a list of all the items you will need to fix those meals and then never deviate from your list.

Never shop before a meal

Oh, and one other thing. Never go grocery shopping before you eat lunch or dinner. Statistics show that the hungrier you are when you go grocery shopping, the higher your grocery bill will be. And that?s a fact.

Inscription. At the turn of the century, the area around Mathewson Street was the core of Providence's entertainment district. By 1916, Providence had as many as sixteen theaters.

The site next to Grace Church marked the changes. The Nickel theater known as Lothrop's gave popular plays, variety performances, and " exhibited freaks." It eventually became the city's first full time movie house. The Nickel was then removed to make way for the E.F. Albee Stock Company Playhouse, which subsequently became RKO Albee as motion pictures displaced vaudeville, musicals, and repertory drama.

During the 1950's and 1960's, as people moved to the suburbs, the lights went out on the motion picture district. the Albee closed in 1970 and was torn down shortly thereafter.

Some theaters, however, were saved from the wrecking ball. In 1973 the Trinity Repertory Company moved into the Lederer theater. Mayor Vincent Cianci Jr. and the Providence Foundation saved the Loew's State in Providence from demolition in 1977. It reopened in 1978 as the Ocean State Performing Arts Center. The revitalization of the arts and entertainment district had begun.

Protest Cripples Pan American Energy's Argentina Oil, Gas Output

A violent protest has crippled oil and gas output at a strategically important field belonging to Argentina's Pan American Energy, the company said in a statement late Friday.

Crude output at Pan American's Cerro Dragon field in Chubut province has fallen about 75,000 barrels a day to around 19,000 barrels since Thursday, when 300 to 400 protesters took over production facilities at the field.

Natural gas production has fallen 3 million cubic meters a day, the company said, without offering more details.

"If the facilities are still occupied, we expect to see the total paralysis of oil and gas output in a maximum of 30 hours," the company said. "This could cause grave consequences for the domestic hydrocarbons supply and jeopardize gas distribution to localities served by the Patagonian pipeline."

Cerro Dragon normally injects about 6.5 million cubic meters of gas into Argentina's national gas pipeline system. The field ships gas to the city of Buenos Aires and smaller towns in southern Argentina.

"It's hard to get production back online quickly," Pan American Chief Executive Oscar Prieto said in a television interview late Friday.

Pan American said the protesters, who belong to a construction workers' union known as "The Dragons," stormed the area early Thursday and destroyed trucks, fiber-optic equipment and critically important monitoring equipment.

Prieto said the protest was totally unexpected.

The workers, who are demanding higher wages and legal recognition, took over a power generator, putting all of the company's oil and natural gas production in the area at risk, according to Pan American.

The protesters aren't Pan American employees but work as contractors for companies hired by Pan American.

Guido Dickanson, who leads the workers, said in a television interview the workers want to be treated and paid as if they were official oil union workers.

"We're all oil workers. It doesn't matter that we're not technically in the oil workers' union," he said.

Unionized oil workers are among the highest paid workers in Argentina.

"They have the highest salaries in the country," Prieto said, though he declined provide specific numbers.

The protesters have prevented around 6,700 workers from doing their jobs at the field, Pan American said.

The Cerro Dragon field is more than 50 years old, but it's still the most productive and important in Argentina, Prieto said.

Pan American has invested around $3.5 billion in the field over the past four years. Cerro Dragon is also one of the biggest fields of its kind in Argentina and is more than 15 times bigger than the city of Buenos Aires.

Because of the conflict, Pan American doesn't have any employees at Cerro Dragon and it is unclear when workers will be able to return.

BP PLC (BP) owns a 60% stake in Pan American. The remaining 40% is equally split between Argentina's Bridas Energy Holdings Ltd. and China's Cnooc Ltd. (CEO).

This makes the bristles bend and eventually wear out faster. Rather, try storing your broom with the bristles facing up. You can also avoid mildew on your mops by hanging them so that the head of the mop can dry throughly.

Weigh the pros and cons of having a security alarm set on your home when having showings. If you aren?t in residence at the house and it?s located in an unsafe neighborhood, having an active security system can be a good idea.

Avoid listening to everything a contractor tells you. Even well-respected contractors can turn your original project into one that?s bigger than you anticipated. Get a second opinion before agreeing to additional work that involves more money or time.

Many cities have codes that dictate how far off the road and how high a mailbox should be; therefore, check your city?s codes before installing your mailbox. You can do this job fairly quickly.

You should always have on hand an organizer that holds a number of fasteners. If you do this, you won?t have to search for what you need when you are trying to complete a project, fix something or hang those family photos. It?s a good idea to keep a mix of things. Nails and screws in an assortment of sizes and different anchors are all great to have available. When you have a variety on hand, you can save yourself that extra trip to the store.

If you are doing a project in a room that has gas connections, such as a fireplace or a stove, shut off the gas before you begin working. You want to be extremely cautious during this process. You can be seriously injured or start a fire during the project.

Heated floors are an accessible luxury. If the floor is being replaced anyway, and you are adding tile, ask the contractor how much adding radiant heat will cost. Heated floors are surprisingly efficient and will greatly increase your comfort on chilly days. This can also improve your home?s value significantly.

When you are interviewing contractors, check to make sure they have all of the proper licenses your state requires.

FoodieFC: Aroy Dee Thai Cafe (Sunshine Plaza)

Aroy Dee Thai Cafe is located at the first level of Sunshine Plaza facing NAFA. Ever since I tried the Tom Yum over here, I have been back several times. Over the few visits, I have noticed that?Aroy Dee Thai Cafe is always very crowded during lunch time.

Thai people are very patriotic.?Thai Royal family Portrait are proudly displayed in most eateries, restaurants and shops in Thailand. Recently, I have noticed that most Thai restaurants in Singapore are displaying the Royal Family Portrait too.

If you are there during lunch, they have the Set Lunch Menu?(rice/noodle) that includes a main course and a drink (Lime/Guava/Mango/Freshly Brew Lemon Grass/Roselle Flower) for just $5.50.

I ordered the Set Lunch 'Tom Yum Chicken with Steam Rice' and my choice of drink was lime.

The Tom Yum (Tom Yam) Chicken was delicious! It was not oil and did not look spicy (not fiery red or orangey in colour). But well, appearances are deceiving... it was?very?spicy. Still it was so addictive ?that I finish everything! In addition, they were generous with the ingredients (button mushrooms, chicken chunks and tomato). The chicken chunks were tender and soft! A must order! Shiok!

Aroy Dee Thai Cafe although is not very accessible; not near any MRT stations. The nearest MRT stations are Bugis and Dhoby Ghaut stations. Despite this,?Aroy Dee Thai Cafe is very popular. The place is frequently packed. Well, the reason is because the food is great!?

If it is too crowded, no worries, there is Victor's Kitchen?(great dim sum place) nearby!?

Feds probe engine stalling in Chrysler 200

DETROIT (AP) ? Federal safety regulators are investigating complaints about engine stalling in some Chrysler 200 midsize sedans.

The probe includes about 87,000 of the cars from the 2011 model year that have 3.6-liter V-6 engines.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 15 complaints that the engines stall without warning while coasting to a stop.

The probe could lead to a recall. The safety agency says it's looking into how often the problem happens.

Chrysler spokesman Eric Mayne says the company is working with the government. He says engine performance can be affected by many things like software and fuel quality. Mayne says the 3.6-liter engine is in 12 Chrysler models and has traveled millions of miles without problems.

Internet group picks little-known executive as CEO

Chehade, 50, will be the next CEO of ICANN, the company announced Friday. He will replace former U.S. cybersecurity chief Rod Beckstrom as chief executive. (AP Photo/Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)

NEW YORK (AP) ? A businessman with experience in building consensus will be the next CEO of the Internet agency in charge of contentious policies surrounding Internet addresses.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which is pushing through a major change in the way Web and email addresses are structured and assigned, announced Fadi Chehade's appointment Friday. He will replace former U.S. cybersecurity chief Rod Beckstrom as chief executive.

In selecting Chehade, ICANN went with someone who isn't well known and isn't well versed in the organization's core tasks ? keeping the Internet address system running smoothly.

Chehade does, however, have a knack for diplomacy. In the early days of e-commerce, he persuaded leading tech companies such as IBM and Hewlett-Packard to collaborate on a system called RosettaNet for exchanging data, even as they competed for customers. ICANN Chairman Steve Crocker said those achievements outweighed the drawbacks.

In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press ahead of the announcement, Chehade, 50, said his work at RosettaNet prepared him for the new role.

"The thrill and the satisfaction of bringing people around some common understanding is tremendous," Chehade said. "I have a personal and deep love of bringing consensus."

He said that when executive recruiters contacted him about the position at ICANN, "I immediately had flashbacks of how much I enjoyed doing a job that everybody told me was impossible and difficult."

As CEO, Chehade will receive a base salary of $560,000 plus up to $240,000 in bonuses based on merit. He is tentatively set to start Oct. 1. His tenure lasts until July 1, 2015.

Beckstrom leaves ICANN this July 1. Chief Operating Officer Akram Atallah will serve as CEO in the interim.

One of Chehade's chief tasks will be guiding the largest expansion of the Internet address system since its creation in the 1980s. The change affects how people find Web sites or send email and could lead to more options for businesses as easy-to-remember ".com" names are harder to obtain.

ICANN has received 1,930 proposals for 1,409 different domain name suffixes, including ".love," ''.google" and ".music." They would rival ".com" and others now in use. A florist called Apple can't use "apple.com" today because the computer company has it, but the shop might get "apple.flowers" one day.

Even after a decade of debate, however, the expansion still faces criticism, much of it from trademark holders who worry about having to police the Internet for addresses that misuse their brands.

"Anything new like this is going to create angst and controversy, and it's going to create opportunity," Chehade said.

ICANN is also in charge of assigning the numeric Internet Protocol addresses used to identify computers, smartphones and other Internet-connected devices. And it faces perennial calls for the United Nations to take a greater role in crafting Internet policies. Although ICANN has board members from around the world, it is headquartered in Los Angeles and gets its authority from the U.S. government, which funded much of the Internet's early development.

Chehade has some international experience, having served for a year in Dubai as IBM general manager for global technology services for the Middle East and North Africa. Born in Lebanon and of Egyptian decent, he speaks English, Arabic, French and Italian. He lives in Los Angeles and became a U.S. citizen in 1986.

Chehade moved to the U.S. in 1980 at age 18. Smuggled out of Beirut, he arrived in Los Angeles with $482 and worked two restaurant jobs there before attending Polytechnic Institute of New York on a scholarship. After graduating with a computer science degree in 1985, he got a master's in engineering management from Stanford University a year later.

He worked at Bell Labs before starting a company, Nett Information Products, in the early 1990s. The company offered services that used Lotus Notes software to let companies collaborate with partners over proprietary networks. Ingram Micro Inc., a distributor of information-technology products, bought the company in 1996 and tasked Chehade with adapting the services to run over the Internet.

It was there that he built software for computers from various companies to talk to one another with little human intervention. For instance, when CompUSA places an order through 3Com Corp.'s website, 3Com's computers automatically contact Ingram Micro's machines to ship the products to CompUSA.

That system was custom built. Its success prompted Chehade to create standards ? such as common ways for proprietary systems to define shopping baskets ? so that it could be used by hundreds or thousands of businesses.

That effort evolved into RosettaNet, which brought together leading, sometimes-competing companies such as Microsoft Corp., SAP AG, Oracle Corp., IBM Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co., Dell Inc. and Cisco Systems Inc., along with FedEx and UPS.

"I had to get all these Silicon Valley giants in a room and convince them that if their machines talk to each other, we don't lose a competitive advantage," Chehade said.

After leaving RosettaNet in 2000, Chehade created Viacore Inc., which offered supply-chain management services to businesses that didn't want to build their own systems in-house. IBM bought the company in 2006 and hired Chehade. He left IBM in 2009, after spending a year in Dubai. After a brief stint as CEO of CoreObjects Software Inc., Chehade became head of Vocado LLC, which makes software for educational institutions.

Atallah, the No. 2 executive at ICANN, was Chehade's deputy at CoreObjects. They had also known each other as children; both served in the boy scouts in Lebanon.

Chehade credited the Internet with helping him stay in touch with childhood friends, many of whom scattered around the world because of a lengthy civil war in Lebanon during the late 70s and 80s. He said his "personal and professional passion about the value of the Internet" will lead him to favor policies that keep the Internet free from unnecessary restrictions.

At a news conference in Prague announcing his appointment, Chehade added, "I'm here because I owe the Internet everything that I've achieved today."

Australian rock art among world's oldest

An archaeologist has discovered charcoal drawings that are 28,000 years old, making them the oldest in Australia and among the oldest in the world.

By Rod McGuirk,?Associated Press / June 18, 2012

This May 2012 photo provided by Bryce Barker shows Aboriginal rock art in a cave in the Australian Outback. University of Southern Queensland archaeologist Bryce Barker said Monday that tests show the Aboriginal rock art in the cave was made 28,000 years ago, making it the oldest in Australia and among the oldest in the world.

An archaeologist says he found the oldest piece of rock art in Australia and one of the oldest in the world: an Aboriginal work created 28,000 years ago in an Outback cave.

The dating of one of the thousands of images in the Northern Territory rock shelter known as Nawarla Gabarnmang will be published in the next edition of the Journal of Archaeological Science.

University of Southern Queensland archaeologist Bryce Barker said Monday that he found the rock in June last year but only recently had it dated at New Zealand's University of Waikato radiocarbon laboratory.

He said the rock art was made with charcoal, so radiocarbon dating could be used to determine its age. Most rock art is made with mineral paint, so its age cannot be accurately measured.

"It's the oldest unequivocally dated rock art in Australia" and among the oldest in the world, Barker said.

The oldest known rock art is in Spain, where hand stencils and red disks made by blowing paint on to the wall in El Castillo cave are at least 40,800 years old, according to scientists using a technique known as uranium-thorium dating.

Australian National University archaeologist Sally May, who is not involved with Barker's research, described his find as "incredibly significant."

"I don't think it will surprise anyone that rock art is that old in Australia because we know people have been here a lot longer than that and there's no reason to believe they weren't producing art," she added.

Barker said he found evidence that the cave where he found the rock art had been occupied for 45,000 years.

Canadian dismemberment suspect pleads not guilty

Luka Magnotta, the Canadian porn actor suspected of killing and dismembering another man, made his first appearance in a Montreal courthouse today. CBC's Peter Akman reports.

By msnbc.com news services

Luka Magnotta, a Canadian porn actor accused of killing and dismembering his 33-year-old Chinese lover in Montreal, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to multiple charges, including first-degree murder.

Magnotta was arraigned a day after he arrived in Canada, touching down at Quebec?s Mirabel Airport aboard a military jet. He was extradited from Germany.

Magnotta appeared via teleconference at the Montreal courthouse Tuesday?afternoon, the CBC reported.


Magnotta, 29, was arrested at an Internet cafe in?Berlin on June 4 after a 10-day manhunt.

Magnotta, born Eric Newman, was a porn actor and escort who reportedly?has at least 70 Facebook pages, including some with violent language about killing lovers.

Canadian authorities allege that he filmed the murder and dismemberment of Lin Jun, a Concordia University student, in late May; posted the footage on a website dedicated to gore; and then mailed Lin?s hands and feet to political parties in Ottawa and schools in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Lin?s torso was found in a suitcase in the alley of Magnotta?s apartment building. His head has not been recovered.

Police believe that after mailing Lin?s body parts, Magnotta flew to Paris, where he partied for several days before heading to Germany. When authorities found him at the Internet caf? in Berlin, he was reading about himself, according to media reports.

NBC News and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
