In the winter, my slow cooker goes at least twice a week if not more. I make everything I can in it. I actually have three sizes depending on what I plan to fix at the time. I have collected so many recipes just for slow cookers that I do very little other cooking in the winter besides slow cooking. Using it a couple times a week gives me plenty of left overs for the other days of the week. My hubby always walks in the house and says "what smells so good" and of course, I tell him it's the slow cooker that's been going all day. Because I work most days, it has been a life-saver when I'm too tired to do anything when I get home. My life would not be the same with out my slow cookers!
