We here at the palace enjoy a popcorn snack at least once a week. We can eat microwave popcorn if we have to - but we prefer popcorn cooked the old fashion way (perhaps maybe not over a campfire) but traditional in the modern appliance sense. Traditional popcorn kernals in grocery and superstores are several pounds for small containers of popcorn. We have found a more frugal way to purchase popcorn is at the local health food store. Popcorn is on average at least 2 pounds less than at grocery and convenience stores - not to mention that this Health food store price is often for ORGANIC popcorn. So... the next time you or your family want(s) a popcorn treat instead of heading to the grocery store why not try your nearest health food store.
Until next time, may your palace be sparkling, may your family be well fed and in good health, and your resources be plentiful, all because you choose to be wise and frugal, for both your family and your palace!

Renee...I buy popcorn locally at Vitamin Cottage...and you're right, it's CHEAP! My mom gave me this contraption that you put in the microwave to pop it. It's by Presto and it's called a Micro Popper. Super easy and it's so healthy too!
We LOVE coupon the old fashioned way - in fact my boys won't even really eat microwave popcorn any more! We just cook ours on the stove top...easy...a touch messy...even the kids can help! I am moving your link to this site down into my "frugality" section!! :)
