Sterno deal

My mom spotted this deal at Lewis Drug store. If you have one in your area check out the camping aisle for 2 packs of Sterno canned cooking gel at half price.

The little stove I found on Amazon; it's a Coghlan's.

I can't see it in the photo, but the can is lit and burning with a blue flame here.

This is an excellent option for emergency cooking if you're like me and have an electric stove. I have outdoor options with the grill and my rocket stove (which I'm planning a post on this weekend) but sometimes cooking outside isn't a good choice. The weather could be bad or mosquitoes might be swarming. I also have a propane camping stove, but that isn't recommended for indoors.

If you don't have a Lewis in your area, try to check your local stores just in case. I've found that different stores will often have the same items for sale.
