Why I Went Back To 1930s Winter Soup Habits At 52 (And My Grocery Bill Fell $200)

In 1934, a family of six ate dinner from one pot of 1930s winter soup for about twelve cents. So why was I paying $4.50 for one carton of broth? Here's how I went back. When I turned 52, my husband and I were spending over $700 a month on groceries for just two people. So I went back to the 1930s winter soup habits my grandmother's generation lived by, and within a few months our grocery bill fell by $200. In this video, I walk you through all 12 habits, from the bone bag in my freezer to the Friday soup that uses up every leftover.
