Frugal Living: $35 on food today

Tweet

After I picked up my mail that was being held at the post office, I went over to the commissary to buy a few groceries. This is what I bought: Two pkgs beef bones One dozen eggs One pkg English muffins One pkg frozen soup veggies One pkg frozen black eyed peas Three pkgs frozen spinach One large bag frozen berries One large clamshell container salad greens Two heads garlic One avocado Three potatoes One red onion Three small yellow onions One lime One bunch green onions One bunch of cilantro Two bananas Two carrots One cucumber Two zucchini squashes I also got a couple of other things that I needed that were not food. The total for everything, including the 5% surcharges: $43.72. This, plus what I have in my freezer, pantry, and refrigerator, will be my basis for cooking for the rest of the month. We'll have to see if I can make that work without having to shop again until February. Or I may go to WinCo tomorrow to see what is on sale. Photo is mine of part of my receipt.
