Follow along with iReport staffers as we build a new kind of news site.
The price of fuel is at record highs, and it's affecting other
prices too -- like the cost of food.
There's a great discussion about food prices happening right
now on iReport.com.
Crankers
thinks $1.69 is too much for a head of
iceberg
lettuce.
XMan suggests a
heavy
diet of dried
beans.
millerlb says
a family of 7 can survive on
$25 a day. And
GeekyCraig
says he has changed everything about the way
he shops and
eats.
So, how are food prices affecting you? What are food prices
like in your local markets?

Is it not possible to convert sea water for irrigation purpose and
develop on the agricultural front or lay down under water tubs like
the oil pipes and transfer water from regions like Holland to
various parts near by where there is need for water that can be
used for irrigation purpose. Why on oil and fuel or optic cables
and why not something like this.
I don't know if I make sense but is it possible. Regards, Raj Reddy. (Skyreach Relocations) | |

Top 10 Ways I Save Money in this Ridiculous Economy!!
1) Own your assets instead of renting and/or leasing 2) Carpool 3) Take banks up on offers for $50 or $100 bonuses when you open a new checking account. Most banks allow you to maintain a small minimum balance(perhaps $500) and often the time limit for keeping the account is only a few months. Open several of these accounts each year and switch them when allowed. 4) Use coupons (I save an average of 15-20% each time at the grocery store) 5) Instead of going to an insurance agent who takes a cut or the companies that have quotas to make for certain areas, check out this site that tracks good deals: http://www.insuremeonline.com/home/index.cfm 6) Exercise or play a sport for entertainment instead of going to the mall or the movies 7) Drink a glass of milk or eat an apple each time you're hungry for a snack instead of dropping $4-5 on a value meal. 8) Don't get in credit card debt! Be willing to eat peanut-butter and jelly for a month straight rather than fall into the death cycle of credit card debt... 9) Watch for sales at outlet stores like Kohls and TJ Maxx. You can score big on already discounted name-brand clothes when they put on 30% off sales. 10)Make it a concrete rule to put 20% of each paycheck into a savings account. 11**) Give 10% of your earnings to charity or as a tithe to your church/religious institution. It all comes back in the end. | |
