My aunt is a hygenist and my uncle ...lol I hear ya. <BR/><BR/>My aunt is a hygenist and my uncle a dentist. They both support flouride 100% (and go toe-to-toe with me over its benefits) but still will prescribe baking soda and peroxide to their patients over any other toothpaste. Perhaps your dentist/hygenist could suggest how many times a week to use the store-bought stuff and you could stretch out your current supply with the homemade stuff the rest of the time.<BR/><BR/>Either way, I still think you're doing great only averaging $37 a week this month!<BR/><BR/>You inspired be to shop a bulk supplier. i get my supply tomorrow! :)<BR/><BR/>~TaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160942949010085255.post-32361373928748003762009-01-25T23:29:00.000-05:002009-01-25T23:29:00.000-05:00Please re-think buying into the floride.

I am always shopping the "reduced" meats/cheeses sections, and have done a few vegetarian meals to cut back. In my defense, I have 2 men I cook for, (hubby and 19 yos) and my 16 yod, myself, and my ultra finicky 7 yo grandson. I think my downfall is the "fresh" stuff. Veggies and fruit are so $$$!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160942949010085255.post-58299731646532799752009-01-24T13:58:00.000-05:002009-01-24T13:58:00.000-05:00Why not make your own toothpaste?

You can even nix the aloe and mint and go it plain-jane for even cheaper.<BR/><BR/>http://theorganicsister.com/2008/09/29/homemade-toothpaste/<BR/><BR/>We've decided to cut back our meat consumption and pt for more vegetarian/vegan meals. That will cut back out expenses greatly.<BR/><BR/>Even if you did go over, you're still doing great in comparison to most of us!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160942949010085255.post-24895767644615395542009-01-24T12:14:00.000-05:002009-01-24T12:14:00.000-05:00Don't beat yourself up about it.
