especially $45 emergency menu and $70 menu
While it would probably run more today to buy - this site has lots of good recipes and ideas for low-cost healthy foods. And check out the dollar stores for things like spices and paper/cleaning goods.
And if you have an Aldi's nearby, its worth a trip. When my husband got laid off, we'd go to Aldi's first, then the regular grocery store for anything we needed that Aldi's didn't have. Saved so much money on food & other supplies!
We have an Aldi near us. I’ve always wondered how that place works, but didn’t want to go in not knowing (I’m a dork). Can you pay with a debit card? Do you have to bring your own bags? Is it a membership only place? Is it just canned stuff, or do they have fresh fruits, veggies, eggs, meat?
Thanks!
