We were able to afford a very expensive home in our budget by cutting out excess eating expenses.
Even with prices being high at grocery store it’s still cheaper than DoorDash in my opinion.
A week worth of groceries for the both of us is around $100 or less.
I go to farmers markets for veggies. $20 worth will get you lettuce, cabbage, tomatoes, cucumber, an assload of onions and potatoes, greens, spinach, broccoli, green beans, peppers. The market I go to will give you a basket and let you pick and choose your own veggies for really cheap.
We have huge bags of rice/grits/flour/spices at the crib.
Only things I get at the grocery store are meats, cheeses and specialty items if I wanna make desserts.
Eggs $7, bacon $4, sausage $3, pot roast $10, chicken $4, smoked sausage $5, ribs , fish, cheese, milk/cream run me around $60.
