a decent loaf of bread is damn near $3 yo :martin: had to start making my own banana bread from scratch.

everything be :smugfavre: when im throwing the rice, beans, greens, noodles, eggs in the cart


soon as i throw that meat,almond milk,bread,olive oil in the cart and hit the register

:dame:

only cheap shyt is corn products. chips,pop,high fructose.

Gotta know where to trim the fat. Stop shopping at those name brand stores as much as possible. The only think you really want to pay good money for is meat and produce. Everything else you can get for the low low at a Aldi's or Sav A Lot or what have you.

$100 gets me my meat for the MONTH. And we're a family of 4. In NYC. What ya'll doing?:gucci:

Add an extra $60 for seafood. And there's enough for leftovers to take to lunch everyday. Probably spend $30 on munchies for the month.

The only thing I buy weekly is fresh fruits and vegetables. And even then, I go to the farmers market and spend maybe $20 on that. If that.

Hit up the African market, and I can get a months worth of rice for $5-6. I can get beans for the month for $3. Flour, oats, grains all of that is like 50 cents a pound there.

Stop sleeping on Mom and Pops, and your little around the way markets. That's how you make your dollars stretch. I only go to big name stores for meat. And again, I only buy what's on sale.

everything getting more expensive but wages not going up = eventual third world status

it's insane how a 3 strip combo from popeyes is $9, but about a decade ago, it used to be around $5. A small bag of beef jerky is almost $10.

Agree...but why TF is beef jerky getting so dayum high. I don't get that...

I only buy things on sale or with coupons:manny:

So you those type of people who holding up the line, take your cheap ass to the store early in morning or late at night, nah y'all wanna come to the store during rush hour with 20 items and 20 coupons and half the the time they be expired.

Get your cheap ass out the line
