Save money by buying fruits and vegetables in season

Recently I’ve been having the worst case of constipation. I haven’t been getting my normal dose of fiber for a few days. Sometimes, the days are just better after a good shit. Thus I wanted to write about fruits and vegetables and how you can save a little money by thinking of the seasons by which these fruits and vegetables grow. When I went to sams and I saw that a bunch of bananas were selling for under a buck. Now I have too many frozen bananas in my freezer because I bought so much and I couldn’t finish them.

Best places to go to save money on fruit = farmers market, also watch out for coupons on your sunday newspaper. Another big thing if you have a big family is the community farm shares where you have fruits and veggies delivered to you everyweek by farmers in your local area for a set amount of money
