Jul. 2, 2008 - Angel Food Ministries
I am happy to share with you information about Angel Food Ministries.
Church host sites handle orders and distribution of food. A unit of food consists of a medium size box consisting of both fresh and frozen food that has a retail value of $60. Price of one unit it $30. They say in general, a unit of food can feed a family of four for a week or a single senior citizen for almost a month. These are not second-hand, outdated, or damaged goods. You can also order a specialty box consisting of chicken, steaks, or pork.
There is no limit to how many units that can be purchased per month. There are also no qualifications or applications to complete (folks of any income can participate). This ministry does participate in the US Food Stamp Program.
Visit Angel Food Ministries to see if there is a program offered near you. You can also see menus for the month and find out how to place and pick up your order.
In our day of rising grocery and gas costs, this absolutely is "a bargain and a blessing" as the website states.

I just read your blog, jen burk sent me here! I love all your daily updates!
There is a good deal at Target right now for soda and ice cream.
Buy 3 12-packs of specially marked soda (A&W, Dr. Pepper, Sprite, Sundrop maybe some others) for $8 then get a free Edy's ice cream. Go to a fullcup.com and print off $1 off soda coupon that expires on 7.5.08.
So for $10 I got 6 12-packs of soda and two 1/2 gallons of ice cream. Usually don't buy that much soda, but we're having Marybeth's 1st bday party!

Once I saw Mary Beth's name I knew it was you! Thanks for coming by! What an AWESOME deal you got from Target! That is so good. Ted is my big diet soda consumer, so any chance to whittle down his monthly soda bill, I jump on. :o) Feel free to write any deals to me--I am going to add your Target one in a regular post!
