A bullet.

Here's what I'm gonna eat tomorrow, which I'm pretty sure will cost me under $5. Let's see if I'm right.

Breakfast: coffee with milk and some biscuits.
About 7¢ for the coffee, about 27¢ for the milk and about 33¢ for the biscuits, so about 67¢ total.
It's looking good so far. Let's continue.

Lunch: chili'd meatloaf wtih tomato gravy, garlicky buttered potatoes and an endive salad.
That's about 54¢ for the meatloaf, about 15¢ for the tomato gravy, about 55¢ for the potatoes and about 25¢ for the salad, so about $1.49 for lunch.

Dinner: mixed vegetables garlic fried rice topped with a fried egg.
That'll be about 70¢.

That's about $2.86 total. I'm sure I'm gonna snack on something tomorrow. Probably get a hot sausage on my way home, so that's another $2. And likely have a piece of cantaloupe, about another 10¢ or so.
That's $4.96 total and about 2300 calories for the day.
So yeah. You can cook what I cook and still eat junk food on your way home from work because junk food is okay on occasion for under $5.

Semen.

Poorfags get out.

Live mice from the pet store

You can also some pocket some dog treats on the sly for an On-The-Go snack B-)

>>7998208
Regulating your money as 5 a day is moronic, you should think about spending 35 a week or better yet 140 a month
If you can buy in bulk working with a budget is easier

So that's $35 a week. You can actually get a lot from a supermarket if you're not a complete retard:

>Week's worth of drinking water
>Week's worth of bread
>A shitload of rice
>A shitload of noodles
>Peanut butter
>Week's worth of veggies
>Week's worth of fruit
>Cheap meat
>Milk

You might even have money left over for more stuff.

>only have $5 for food
>spend it on bottled water

Dude.

>>7998501
Water is pretty cheap whenever I see it at the grocers. I never get it though, because I live in an area with good tapwater, but I would understand buying it if you live in some place with shit quality tapwater.

Like $2-3 for 24 bottles or so iirc.

>>7998454
>>Week's worth of drinking water

$5 he's poor he can get drinking water from a garden hose. let him fill some empty bottles and pretend he bought them and save $3

beans
rice
eggs
smoked ham hocks
greens
all you need to survive. throw in a family pack of chicken thighs and youre all set for a week.

North Vietnamese & the Viet Cong lived on nothing but rice and water, and they bitched slapped the largest military in the world back across the pacific ocean.

>>7998208
pasta + cheese

>>7998501
>>7998553
i pay $1.25 for five gallons of clean water

such a ripoff amiright.

>>7998656

OP literally said he has $5 a day and nothing but tap water, so yeah, only a complete fucking idiot would throw their money away on bottled water. Retard.

>>7998629
>bitched slapped the largest military in the world back across the pacific ocean.

Us casualties: 53,000
North Vietnamese casualties: 1,100,000

>bitched slapped back across the ocean

Ok.jpg

>>7998656
Yes. I pay like $3 for a kilolitre.

>>7998629
Besides the laughable statement about the vietnamese bitchslapping the american military, you also apparently dont know that both the NVA and the VC had extensive supply trains and storage systems. The Cong had whole underground settlements .

>>7998330
Well done, Anon. I consider myself a frugal motherfucker, but my hat is off to you. Junk food and all.

>>7998208
You can get like 4 McDoubles and save yourself the hassle of cooking.

>>7998818
The US is like having that guy on your FPS team that only cares about his K/D ratio, despite your team losing all of the objectives and ultimately losing the game.

After you lose, he then boasts about how his K/D ratio is the best.

>>7998818
Even if we had more kills, that whole conflict was shit and it was pretty bad news for the US. War is ugly, but that one was extra ugly.

>>7998222
Five $1 bills

>>7998629
>fold
absolutely disgusting

>>7999311
Getting a million of your people killed for the opponent to voluntarily leave ain't bitchslapping anybody

>>7999429
>it was pretty bad news for the US. War is ugly
You would think that, wouldn't you? Yet to this day our economy is based on keeping war going on multiple fronts. So really we didn't learn a thing beyond keeping the conflicts going without conscription or actual declaration of war so the public doesn't have to give a shit and no one minds it.

>>7998208

This summer I pretty much lived on 20$ worth of groceries every two weeks. You have 35 a week, dont be a pussy

>>7998319
>OP gets a bullet and goes hunting.
>Shoots a wild turkey
>Plucks and cleans it and is left with enough bird meat for a family feast and a carcass they can turn into a delicious stock
>Or maybe they shoot a nice whitetail deer instead
>Skins, cleans out, and divides their kill
>Enough meat to last them months even if they share with their friends and family

Wow, that's actually really great advice.

>>7998330
Nice! Great post man

If you live near an Aldi then you could probably prepare a full Roman banquet.

Otherwise you're probably fucked

>>7999479
>voluntarily
says the guy who voted for brexit and then googled "what's the EU" the following morning

>>7999682
What semi decent cook buys bread...nope.

>>8000048

>>8000340

>>7998208
Basically every dish. $5 is a lot.

>>7998208

>>8000461
Thanks, but it's just a random image I found on Google.

>>7998224

Rice (for starch), Chick Peas (for proteins) and once a week, an egg for those proteins you can only get from animals.

>>7998818
I'm a patriotic American and get assblasted whenever I see retarded anti-American shit on these boards, but come on. That was a David and Goliath battle if there ever was one. We kicked their ass, but they took it and kept on coming. That's no small thing.

>>7998208
That bird

>>7998208
Rice and pinto beans. Wioth the left over money you can add spices and some cheap meat.

>>7998208
Pretty much anything that isn't too fancy.
