[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been on one income since July while my husband job hunts. I've been doing trader joes. I meal plan for the week so I don't go rouge on my grocery list and find various meal plans online that are budget friendly...$60 trader Joe meal plans etc. We also do one to two meatless days. My lunch is leftovers. It's the snacks for the kids that really ups the bill right now so I try to keep those reasonable. It's tough though, prices are insane and rising. I started being extra mindful in June when things weren't looking good for my husband's job and the prices have steadily creeped up. In June I could feed my family of 4 at $110-150ish and now it's $200 for the same things I was buying then. We have stopped eating out completely. [/quote]

Ugh I'm sorry OP. I'm prepping for job loss (fed in a targeted area) and also trying to be really careful. We used to stock up on pantry items as soon as we ran out of them, now I'm putting off replacing them until they're part of a specific meal plan. Kids are also getting generic brand snacks from Aldi, they prefer the name brands but too bad right now. [/quote]
