I just bought 20+ tv dinners because they were on sale for $1.69. I am trying to stop eating out at work so now I have stuff to take with me for lunch. 

My grocery bill for 20+ frozen dinners, 2 half gallon tubs of neopolaten ice cream, two quarts of ben & jerrys ice cream, three 2 liter bottles of mountain dew  was 70 dollars but then the lady scanned my club card and the price dropped to 53 dollars.  :)

I steal plastic forks from KFC all the time.  There's no sign saying how many per person ;D

I just spent $251 at Stop and Shop and I didn't even buy any meat!  :o

I spent $87 today at Shaw's.  I saved over $10 through special offers available to Shaw's card holders

Hmm, good idea Mike.

Let's see, off the top of my head my last grocery run went something like this, give or take.

2 boxes of Captain Crunch.
A pound of Hard salami.
2 loaves of the cheap white bread.
Peanut Butter (crunchy).
Braunschweiger (not sure how much, still have some left though).
Several things of Brats because they were on sale.
Quite a lot of noodles.
Some of those chunky soups.
Some chicken breasts.
A bag of carrots.
An onion.
Several bottles of Dr. Pepper.
Snickers bars.
Ice Cream.

..and more stuff. I'm not sure how much I paid (my shops generally come in under $40 before I go to the liquor store) but I usually go to the B.X so don't pay any sales tax or anything.

as for groceries I bought tonight ...

♦ An Apple Pie
♦ 6 Grapefruits
♦ 3 packages of Raspberries
♦ 5 cans of Chef Boyardee
♦ 1 bottle of Sunny Delight

:o  I got my spoon, when do we eat  ;D

My last trip, last night.  Bandaids, a frozen pizza, some gingerbread cookies, muffins, cheese, milk and bananas.  Yes, it was a crap run.  I went for bandaids, but made the mistake of going hungry.

The total was $21.19 and I had a $20 prescription credit so I walked out paying $1.19.  Love credits. ;D

My grocery list has become pathatic. Before they started to take insurance from Tim and cut his hours I would spend between 90-130 on groceries a week,now I can only afford between 30-70,depending if he has to pay on any bills,do you know how hard it is to feed 2 adults(3 when Timmy comes home) and a pregnant teenager for that little.Plus 4 cats & a dog.Luckily Misy gets WIC,so are eggs,cheese,milk,peanut butter,juiceand some fruit are free.I get a SS disability check which goes toward the bills,this month I have to save some for Christmas,next month we need to start buying Missy her baby supplies.

It's a fairly traditional combination (in England, at least).  You can also buy mushy peas with mint sauce at fairgrounds

As long as the mint sauce kills the taste of the peas ;D

I heard on the radio once that something is added to make the peas to give that mushy appearance.

If you try and reheat them in the microwave they take on a texture similar to polystyrene

that's pretty clever  ::)    and you may want to patent the name "gourmel," if you will.

lot's of cooking, but the reward of good eating is almost always worth it. 


I'm stuck inside but Lady Di needed to go out so she's gonna pick up the goods.
...My Grocery list:
a bottle of Tums
a small bag of Idaho potatoes

I heard on the radio once that something is added to make the peas to give that mushy appearance.
Is it Bicarbonate of Soda?

I went to the supermarket that is closing down and stocked up on items for 50% off.  A lot of the stuff was sold off already, but I got coffee, tea, lots and lots of chocolate bars(Giaradelli mmmmm..) canned tomatos, cranberries, juices, soups, jellies, canned veggies.  Stuff you can put in the pantry for months and months. All told the bill came to 183.00, but with the -50% I only paid 96.50  Can't beat that  :)

you'll have to bring some I don't have any...
