Stretching Your Milk Dollar

July 5, 2012 By Micki 6 Comments

One Gallon of Milk = Two Gallons of Milk!

Milk prices are SOARING, Here are two tips to help you save some Moolah!

Cut it in half: I have been doing this for years now! I buy, (Or get FREE with coupons and sales) 2% or Whole Milk, and break it into two gallons. We have always drank 1% or skim milk, so diluting the above two, it tastes the same! I personally prefer to use filtered water from our Brita Filter.
** Please note this will change the vitamins and supplements per serving.

Freeze Milk: Found a really good price? STOCK UP! Freeze your milk! You can freeze it for up to three months. It will expand by 9% so make sure to remove about a cup and half before freezing. It will turn yellowish when frozen, but when you thaw it, it will go back to white. Skim and 1% freeze better then whole or 2%. IT TASTES THE SAME!

    Do you dilute it with water?

    We’ve been using both of these tips together for a couple of years now. I keep extra gallon bottles on hand, when CVS has a sale I will get a couple split them in 1/2 and freeze. When I start to thaw them is when I will slowly add the water. It helps it to thaw a little faster too. We don’t drink a lot of milk at my house so the 1 gallon cut in halves, will take us about a month to use up.

    So it’s a 50/50 ratio of milk and water, when using whole milk?
