I’ve been reading some really great posts about how to save money on groceries and wanted to highlight another fantastic ministry called Angel Food Ministiries. I buy a $30 box once a month and this helps me stretch our grocery bill just a little bit farther. You get a ton of food in each box and you are free to order any number of the “special” boxes that you might need after the first initial main box. Their website describes this ministry like this:
Angel Food Ministries, a non-profit, non-denominational organization, began in 1994 as a small outreach ministry serving a rural community in Georgia. The goal was to help neighbors who needed a hand up in a tough economic time. Today, Angel Food Ministries can be found in over 3,200 communities in 35 states and helps feed over 500,000 families a month.
Angel Food partners with churches and community organizations throughout the country to help distribute food to those in need. For $30.00* you can receive a box of food containing both fresh and frozen items. Our food items are top quality – we buy our food from major food producers throughout the country to ensure the best food comes to your table.
The food we have received has been grocery store quality for a fraction of the price. I was able to cut my grocery bill by nearly $200 a month just by taking advantage of the many deals I get in this box.
Using Angel Food Ministries is not just a great way to save on my groceries, it is a fantastic way to save my precious time. When I have one of these boxes, I get to spend more time with my family and less time cutting coupons, checking out deals, shopping, and meal planning. The meals are already planned for me thanks to Menus4Moms. Menus4Moms offers a great service to those who participate in the Angel Food service, they go on and plan out weekly menus for a small fee.
This is just another GREAT way to supplement your grocery bill. For more information on the wonderful ministry of Angel Food, click here. For more information about upcoming menus, click here.
