@thebishoptutu: Groceries are getting so expensive that people are changing the way they eat just to survive. Fresh vegetables, bread, milk, meat, everything keeps going up. How are y’all making your money stretch right now? #groceries #struggles #food #inflation
Growing beans, herbs, and other veggies. Also, lots of experimenting with cooking rice and beans.

Stopped by brand names, ground beef, the local Italian bread. I go to a market that has lower prices (I’m fortunate I have that option). Even local food is too much.

Constantly thinking of stretching food and budget everyday, never went a month without always contemplating what to buy this month vs next. Last month, I spent more than I could afford on WIC and EBT so I was cautious this month and got a bag or two full, still overspent 🫠. I had to cut back health wise so no crazy amount of snacks, frozen dinners, sugary items, etc. I started meal planning for each week and leftovers get eaten until gone for me. I think I ate 7 meals of rice and beans I made for myself this week. Including using up cereal. Today I made homemade pizza from 92 cent dough flour, spaghetti sauce I had at home, and grated cheese as a treat for losing 10lbs since May. I was told bc Im on bith programs, I dont count, but I told them I didn't spend that much on food when we had that Snap loss month, I relied on the WIC and food bank boxes and ramen.

I have planned for this, over the last few years I stopped eating out and got comfortable with scratch cooking. i got comfortable with making bread to have bread. I learned to garden and preserve food. I learned how to change what I eat to optimize cheaper, more shelf stable food which I store quantities of. All that being said, it was an investment of money and time...I reap the benefits now as my food supply is cheap and controlled. my biggest expense is meat and dairy which I buy but definitely in less quantity. thanks for your content, btw

I remember when I could get all of my groceries and toiletries for the month for $180. That's less than 2 weeks worth of items now. I'm not willing to substitute my food/cleaning items so I just canceled all of my other subscriptions.

Beef, chips, candy and soda are off my list because they aren’t worth the price.

I have returned to eating vegan foods, but that’s even expensive. I also have an autistic teen that requires the same foods all day everyday.

If it's not on sale, it don't get bought. Hell, sale prices aren't even really a sale, they're just the price they were before they got hiked up to what they are now.
