Eat Better

Organic food tends to cost more, but over time, unhealthy eating can cost you much, much more. Your personal bill for being clinically obese can be as high as $1,429 or more a year. Saving money shouldn't mean skimping on fresh food. Find a local farmer's market at LocalHarvest.org, where you can buy fresh, local produce, baked goods, cheese, and meats at competitive prices. Snag some great organic coupons at RedPlum.com, and don't forget to check manufacturer's sites. You may have to sign up to get coupons and offers, but it can save you a bundle. Not to mention the healthcare savings over your life that result from eating fresh and healthy.

I try to buy only the organics on the dirty dozen list so I know that these fruits have the most pesticides.
