Crazy life of the Jill of all trades

Being a Jill of all trades is something I don't suggest for everyone. Some days like the last few days that I have had well things get crazy. I have also tried to stay away from social media as we have all seen it. I am a very sensitive person and can't handle seeing all the mean and hurt. The last few days I have been processing out the deer my bother brought me. I am so thankful that I have a brother that shares but of course is a lot of time breaking it all down. Yes I am cheap I could have taken to the meat market but that would do no good and cost me well over $150 that we don't have right now. The biggest cost I have found over the years is grinding cost. How I have gotten that down is I got a grinder for myself to have here. I don't just use it for deer meat. I have used it when I get large bulk meat and grind hamburger myself. In my area beef chunks run about $2 a pound. This is compared to over $4 a pound for ground hamburger. I have used many grinders over the years but wanted to share this special one with my deal friends. Gourmia GMG-400 PrimePro Electric Meat Grinder Mincer with 2 Grinding Plates and Reverse Function, White is the best one that I have used in all the years of grinding my own meat. There are a number of buying options and amazon warehouse deals has some in stock. This has saved my family so much money I do a once a month grinding and have for the whole entire month. Freezer bags can also get very expensive so I just get freezer paper and wrap the meat that way. Many meat markets do it that way. Saving money here and there is a good way to help build your family trip or rainy day fund. Why am I telling you this well Wednesday my husband went back to work and the worst things that could happen did. He got hurt pretty bad. Right now we are not for sure if he will have to have surgery. They wanted him to take off of work. That is not a option. He is going to work but it is very light work right now. That may change and could mean a huge drop in funds coming in. I have a test Monday afternoon for a part time post office job and will still bring you great deals. I am working on bringing is all together and getting into a groove with it all. So please bare with me through all the ups and downs. Make sure to share this blog with all of your friends so they can get great deals. I am so excited getting a sneak peak on Black Friday deals that this year might be a great year after 2015 Black Friday flop. I am gathering so much information and can't wait for it all to go live. I will be here for each of you to make your days leading up to Black Friday, Black Friday and Cyber Monday the best and easiest shopping days you have had. No need to go out just hang out with me. I can't wait and want you all to have a great night!
