Also, consider the freshness of the meat or frozen foods. Do you end up throwing out because it becomes frost bit or doesn’t taste quite as good because it has been frozen for long time. Then if there is power outage all has to be thrown out. For us after doing the true calculations we weren’t saving anything. It was just a habit we were used to from when we had larger family to feed. Just a thought.
