Resources for Grocery Budget?

[Nicholas J Robichaud]

Hey everyone, I’m just curious if any of you have any good links to blogs about saving money on food costs for a family. Being healthy is also important to us, so the more organic stuff we can get the better too. Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

OP

If you have a company with a Sales tax license.  Join the Restaurant Depot in your area.  You might join Sam’s or Costco.   Also seek out a Super Mercado or large Asian store.

You can’t combine Organic with inexpensive.  Organic will always be 2 to 3 times higher.  
.    
Buy gallon freezer bags.  Cut up large portions and freeze.     
 

Buy some 5 gallon buckets with lids.

Buy the following and store in buckets or 2 liter bottles.

50 lb bag chickpea or garbanzo beans     
50 black beans. 
50 pinto beans.       
50 rice

50 Idaho potato

50 red potato

50 onions

50 carrots

Bulk pasta, or make it yourself(cheaper but a lot of work).

Meat:

Large spiral cut ham 20 lb

Pork tenderloin- 20 lb cut into boneless pork chops.

Cheapest roast 20 lb. As roasts.  Also cube.

Normally eggs. But due to Covid price is double    

Buy your miscellaneous at the super Mercado or Asian stores.

If you don’t join one of the clubs  Ask your grocer to order 50 bags of potatoes.  Idaho are far cheaper than Irish.  

If you want real cheap go to the local food bank.   Pick up a lot of free cheese, fruit and bread   Freeze the bread.
