[quote=Anonymous]What are you buying? Consider shifting your fruit/vegetable purchases to be more aligned with seasonal price/availability and you may save money. What that looks like for me in winter: Fruits: bananas, apples, citrus, pears. I buy other fruits (mango, berries, cherries) frozen and either defrost in the fridge for adding to food or mix them into smoothies, etc. Vegetables: broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, hearty greens, onions. Frozen: peas, edamame, corn. I'll add 1-2 "treat" things like cherry tomatoes or snap peas per week if there's room in budget. In the summer, I get a CSA ($15/week for fruit and $41/week for vegetables) and basically don't buy fruits and vegetables at the store.[/quote]
