Cooking the Frugal Way: Empty Boxed Cereal Bags

I wish I could give credit to where I saw this tip, but I honestly can't remember. The tip was to save the plastic bags that hold the cereal in the cereal box. It is very thick and durable. When you empty the cereal box, wash the plastic bag, let it dry, and store for when you need it. These are great for pounding out chicken/steak. The plastic is thick and durable and won't tear/break when you are pounding the meat. Thought that was a great tip. Now if I can just remember to use it ;)
