Rice, beans, vegetables, fruit, lean meats ... do your own damn cooking and stop being lazy. Your food bill will drop dramatically.
This cost me $105 today:
Small container of blueberries
Small container of heaven cream
2 packages of butter
Bag of red potatoes
3 Jalapenos
1 cucumber
1 tomato
1 watermelon
3 pears
2 bags of salad mix
1 bag of bagel thins
1 package of turkey meat
1 container of Simply lemonade
1 container of coffee
1 box of chip bags
1 box of crackers
This was the supplemental shopping. My husband usually spends at least $200 a week for a family of 4 on the staples like milk, meat, flour, sugar, bananas, etc.
We eat out once a week, otherwise it’s all home cooking.
The cost of butter went from $2 to $4.50. The cost of blueberries went from $3 to $9. Bacon doubled. This is just the beginning...
