One of the best things I’ve learned through our site’s partnership with Savings.com is the importance of meal planning. It’s a great help, both with organization (eliminating that last-minute “what’s for dinner” panic), and with using the items in your stockpile. I’ll admit that I’ve been a little more relaxed about meal planning this summer, but with soccer practices and other activities starting up and the beginning of the school year on the horizon, now’s the time to get back on the meal planning bandwagon.
If you’ve let meal planning slide a little this summer, or if you’re just getting started, here are a few links to some previous posts that will help you get on track in the next few weeks:

Meal planning is definitely an area where a few minutes at the beginning of the week can save a lot of time, energy, and stress as the week goes on. We’d love to hear your meal planning tips in the comments!
