    i get 40 bux a month food stamps..

    yes thats a bit more than a dollar a day..

    but with that i go and buy

    i buy 2 lbs of beans a month ( great northern an pinto) 2 bux

    2 lbs of rice 1.50

    10 lbs potatos 4.00

    2 8oz shredded cheese ( different kinds depending on what i want) 4.00

    3 2 lb pks of some kind of meat 10.00 (never pay more than 2 bux a pound)

    mac n cheese 1.00 (usually 3 for a dollar )

    bread 1.50

    frozen broccoli 2 pks 2.00

    gallon of milk 3.00

    off brand hamburger helper 2.00 ( 2 boxes)

    spaghetti fixins 3.00

    salad fixins 4.00

    save the rest of the money for more milk and bread thru the month.

    so i doubt if a dollar a day would be much more of a challenge than real life!

    (bird seed would be oh so much cheaper lmao)

    mac,

    okay, thanks, I'll expect to see the FedEx guy/gal by the end of the week with the paperwork ~ you know, deed to the house, pink slip for the car, etc. ...

    j/k you are sweet, but s'okay, I'll be fine

    candy,

    I understand, sweetie, how do you think I learned about the lentils ..lol ..? Yes, we will eat 5 servings of vegetables a day ,,, hahahahaha !!! Yah, if I want to run out of food after the first week of the month, or, when pigs fly and veggies are cheap ... How are we supposed to get healthy, when we are literally malnourished because of poverty ? Thank the goddess for help received from those who care.

    Yeah, assistance is a big scam ... grrr. (sarcasm intended) {{{ HUGS }}} to ya, gurl !
