[quote=Anonymous]Since you have Amazon prime, you can take advantage for great bulk food buying deals. I recently found this. Example, 10lbs of rice, multiple pounds of dried beans, 50oz of olive oil. Even things kids like, Annie's Mac for $1 each, Asian instant ramens for super cheap. Don't buy what you want, buy what's cheap and nutritious. Also look for local food pantries and produce giveaways. DC parks and recs has weekly free veggie giveaways. Main thing I eat for cheap: Oats (Aldi or Walmart brands) Rice Dried chickpeas or green lentils Frozen veg whatever's on sale Flour and yeast for baking bread Shelf stable milk is usually cheaper Spices from Walmart or dollar tree You can make big batches on the weekend If kids want something else, they can buy it themselves :)[/quote]
