There is am popular show on television on at noon in our area. The chew it is called. They had a popular chef on that was trying to shoe how to feed a family on food stamps.
In other words on the cheap, but nutritious meals. He stressed the need to go to more than one store. He also priced a chicken for anywhere between 5 and 15 dollars. I really don't know where one would go for a 15 dollar chicken. Maybe NYC.

This weeks adds leave me cold. Almost everything featured is a ready made item.
On weeks like this, I will pick the best store around and go to one of my alternative stores a little further away. Perhaps, Winco and the bread store or grocery outlet.
Several things caught my attention. Side dishes (ready made mashed potatoes) were 24 oz for 2.50. Potatoes were 10 pounds for 2.00.and you don't know what preservatives they have in the ready made potatoes.
Next time..it is a surprise...lol
Thanks for stopping by
