Default Re: What frugal thing did you do today?

Yesterdayi bought 2 big frozen turkeys @34c/lb. So I paid less than $15 for about 40 lbs. Today I cut them up in pieces and cooked them in oven. If I would cook them whole, my oven would have to run for over 3 hrs for each. But in pieces, even tho, it didn't fit in the oven, and I had to wait for the first half of meat to cook, and then cook the other half, the oven was on for about 3 hrs. So I cut my cooking time in half by cutting it in pieces.

Before I used to cook whole turkey, but for the last 3 yrs, I always cut it in pieces to save on cooking time and gas.
