I am trying to become more economical with my grocery shopping. I know you can freeze the following item milk,bread, buns, hot dog buns,cheese and cream cheese. I am wonder if what other items have frozen to make them keep longer?
Also do you know how to get past ciculars? We live in Iowa and use the grocery chain Hy-Vee and in there ad from last week there was a deal on cereal that allow you get a free gallon of milk. And I found a coupon to make the deal better.

Buy grapes when they're on sale and freeze them. I pick them off the vines and put them in small zip lock bags. They make a great summer treat frozen, or you can thaw them and eat them that way. If you just put them in regular baggies they only keep for about a month before they start to get a freezer burnt taste, but they may last longer if you put them in a freezer bag. I've not tried it because they don't last that long here. My kids love them for a refreshing snack on a hot day.
