No matter how well-off you might be financially, it never hurts to save a few extra bucks here and there. One of the ways people love to save on their monthly food bills is by visiting warehouse clubs like BJ's, Costco, and Sam's Club to buy their items in bulk.
One of the issues with that, however, arises when you simply can't use the entire product before its expiration date, and there's no category of food where this is more true than the dairy section. Milk, eggs, butter, and cheese tend to go bad more quickly than most other foods and buying them in bulk might not always be feasible for a smaller family.
That is, until you get a chance to watch this awesome life hack video from YouTube channel hip2save. Collin, who also runs the money-saving hip2save.com website, takes you through a guided tour of how to freeze all different types of dairy products to extend their shelf life beyond those fast-approaching expiration dates.
For people that like to buy their food (especially milk) in bulk, her tips can equate to a huge amount of savings. By following her step-by-step plan to freeze milk, eggs, butter, and even cheese, you can buy the discounted bulk items that are about to hit their expiration date, and then freeze them to use whenever you need them.
For something like milk, that may mean an extra month to get through that second gallon of bulk product, whereas eggs, she notes in the video, can be frozen for up to a year by using ice cube trays to freeze them individually.
Keep these tips in mind next time you do your shopping at the local warehouse club, and stock up on some extra ice cube trays to make sure you never run out of eggs again!
