My grocery budget is 58 dollars a week. It is a bitch but I refuse to take food stamps or go to a food bank. Thankfully I have a company truck to drive to work so I don't need much gas.
Looking for tips on how to eat cheap.

Ramen and rice is your friend. That and listening to the calming music of Meade Skelton will sustain you through the darkest times. Wash your food down with a heaping helping of Sweet Tea

Dinty Moores & rice. Store brand cornflakes & whatever fruit's on sale for breakfast. Store brand corn flakes are a bargain. You get a bigger ox & they cost less than the other cereals. If there's no fruit on sale, bananas are cheap.

Seriously JOE Biden term has been a real bitch and its going to get worse

Interest on credit cards now is over 4% up from 2020 Bank loans for new cars are also up and new houe loans are now priced out of first time buyers ability to pay

Elections have consequences They certainly have that for the far worse only because of a few mean Trump tweets

Ziti pasta is cheap. $1.50 a box on sale and it’s very filling.

You can eat it with Spaghetti sauce or if you get creative it tastes great with the Ramen MSG packets. Much more filling than even Ramen. Throw in an egg and it tastes terrific for low cost.

I’m not poor, but I know how to survive if I have to.

Most sane people would rather have a paycheck that can cover their grocery bill than runaway Xidenflation where they're reduced to ramen & store brand saltines every day. Note I said "sane" people. That excludes liberals.

Lots of Pasta, potatoes, frozen veggies. You can get some decent priced chicken cutlets and steaks at Walmart. Walmart, Aldi and Lidl are pretty good places to shop on a tight budget.

From depressions caused by Democrats. their public income jobs they seek for 8-4 jobs keep them fat and happy all of the time while others who do the same work and more make less and have fewer bennies at greater cost, plus you must be a liberal today to even get your foot in the door of a public job

IF your not woke you wont know the answers to interview questions asked by woke public employers in libspeak

SO BE WOKE or BE BROKE TO hasten our end in bankrupt poverty Democrats are bringing us where no one will work in public income jobs , there will be no money for that , enjoy massive liberal tears in the future

I started growing my own fruits and vegetables when the pandemic started and even making my own bread. Wasn’t cost effective the first year, but I haven’t had to go to the store for tomatoes, carrots or berries for at least a year.

There should be more places people without big yards can have small gardens in Fairfax and all over the USA

Teaching young people to grow their own crops of veggies and learning the responsibilities to take care of the things they grow

Is a hell of a lot better then abandoning them to the basement with a computer or a game to forget them

You know me as one of JOE Bidens chief bitch out artists, for good reasons. NOW why does not JOE issue ex orders to allow this on federal land . plus for you pot smokes free weed too . I pass but its ok for libtards to become more mellow

AS long as the week soaked fingers don't pick up a gun . Question 21E stays !

At least you can get food now. Remember when Trump was in office and the grocery store shelves were empty? Things are much better now than when Trump was in office.

Grits, powdered eggs, flour, peanut butter, raisins and clean water is all you need.

No one remembers it that way libtard. All the supply chain issues happened under Biden. He totally sucks as president and the only reason he hasn’t been impeached is because Harris is even worse.

I remember having to drive to the Walmart in Luray just to get some groceries as all of the Walmarts around here were out of food. Yeah Trump fucked us hard.

Tysons Walmart had NOTHING on either side of their cleaning chemical aisle.

Toilet paper? Had to tear up Montgomery Ward catalogs.

Dollar General is a good place to shop if you are nearly fucking broke. The Dollar general brand pasta sauce is only a dollar and it is better than Prego.

If you show up at Hampton inn early in the morning and try to act like you just woke up you can usually get the breakfast bar for free. Don't go in there wearing a coat though, that is a dead giveaway that you are not a paying guest.

Most food banks do not ask for proof that you are poor. I got plenty of money but still get food from food banks. It just saves me money. Sometimes I just throw away the free food just for fun.
