• It will save your travel allowances.

• You will get more orogenic & cost effective rather than super markets.

• Local Market means that you don't need to spend more time because #timeismoney so that means you can save both time as well as money.

3. Don't cook in bulk

Every family / home has there own way to eat like some families don't like to eat same food in a next meal and they discarded that food. According to an article published on

23 Feb 2019 in Deccan Chronicle (Indian English-language daily newspaper) food wastage in India as much as consumes in US and they told that According to the United Nations Development Programme, nearly 40% of the food produced in India goes waste.

Points that will help you to cook food as much as you can utilize:

• Know about the portion size your family eat in a particular meal.

• Plan a menu that how many items you are going to cook for current day meals.

• This should be a responsibility of every family member that they give a information to family weather they will eat at home, have an other plan and how much they will eat.

• If you see a leftover food then don't waste it try to make some snack dishes using that pre cooked leftovers and take in next meals.
