I find it a lot easier to handle the grease and I don't get any spatters all over me. There's still plenty of bacon grease to use or save afterward. Of course, it's not too frugal to put bacon in a hot over during summer, so when I make it every Saturday I make enough to go through the entire week. My husband's the same way as your kids when it comes to bacon. He could eat an entire 10 pound package by himself and come back for more! I normally “bake” my bacon.

Aldis (or Save A Lot if you do not have an Aldis near). At Aldis I get a 3 lb bag for 5.69. That works out to about 1.89/lb! It is delicious. It's frozen separately then bagged so if it's just hubby and me for dinner I can pull out one or two breasts for just us. The breasts are actually so thick that I butterfly them and get two servings from one breast. They stay nice and juicy when cooked. Save A Lot's are not quite that good of a deal. Their bags are about the same price but are only 2.5 lbs I believe. With a family of five one bag has lasted us up to four meals! My secret to saving money on boneless/skinless chicken breast.
