[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t with the cost of food anymore. What am I doing wrong? $100 got me: 1 24 pack of water (I still have half the case), 2 artichokes, 4 tomatoes, box of spring salad, pound of chicken breast, 3 cans of sardines, rosemary bread loaf, small jar of garlic, jar of olives, 2 jarred zoups brand soups, 2 packs of premade lentil dal, 2 bell peppers. After 2 days of cooking I’m basically empty again. This fed 2 people. [/quote] You need to re-think grocery runs. You can't shop for convenience anymore if you need to cut costs. Filter your own tap water you drink at home and save the water bottles for times you don't have access to clean safe water. Artichokes are freaking expensive. Why would you buy them if you are worried about grocery prices? Prewashed spring salad boxes are freaking expensive. Did you buy it at Whole Foods? Buy whatever lettuce is on sale at Target. Meats are ridiculously expensive. You gotta be strategic about where and when you buy meats. Zoups brand soups? Never heard of them. Start making your own soups. Make a big batch and freeze portions.[/quote]
