I have $100 to get me through the next two weeks of groceries. What do I buy? I am gonna go with pasta, cans of tomatoes, potatoes, couple lbs of chicken. What else can I get that's relatively cheap but filling?

This isn't really that little for 2 weeks, just get normal shit and stop wasting money on "MUH VEG THE SCIENTISTS SAID I NEED MUH VEG" and buy actual food.

Toast or cereal for breakfast
Sandwich for lunch
Cheap frozen oven chips and fish fingers/chicken steak with beans for dinner
Instant ramen/noodles for supper

Repeat every day. It really isn't expensive. You'll have some extra money for snackies if you desire them

this. you just have to shop sales. lots of stores have discounted produce that's on the verge of going bad too. throw it in a soup or something.

a bag of cheap couscous is good to have
if you're feeling hungry it's ready in minutes with just some hot water
easy to add in some left overs for flavour / sprinkle in some spices / add some stock cube to the water
basically does the same thing as rice, but is a nice change up in flavour and texture

>> No.20498704

if you're american use a food bank
or walk into a continental breakfast (just kidding)

Go to Costco and get a 5 to 7 lb boneless ribeye, it's about $70. Get 40 eggs for $10 and 5 lb of meat with the rest. Eat once a day. That entire meal will last you for 1 month. You don't need any fucking vegetables they don't do anything for you. Just a waste of fucking money.

That’s a normal amount of money for that amount of time. You can easily eat well for $50 a week if you don’t buy a bunch of goyslop snacks
