Money saving tip of the day! BEANS!



We are doing this trip on a shoestring budget so saving money is incredibly important! We've found lots of ways to save so here are some of our tips. I've got three words for you all..."99 Cent Only" store! We've been able to find a lot there, spices for our food boxes, instant mash potatoes, candy, drink mixes  and best of all...INSTANT BEANS! Now, that may sound unappetizing, it very well could be, but for 33 cents a vacuum sealed bag it was worth it! Instant pinto and black bean mixes can run for $6 or $7 at REI or other camp stores or cheaper ones take too long to cook. So we've mixed in some Taco Bell sauce packets, some mac and cheese-cheese sauce and in some a little taco seasoning...yum!
