We still have no ads. This would normally be the day that I do the ads. This month they all seem to have a thanksgiving theme and are not really conducive of stocking. That being said. Now is the time for you to stock pumpkin of you are a pumpkin eater. ( no pun intended LOL).
My guess is they next month will be the same. That's why stocking when prices are low makes sense., The trick is to stock in moderation, just enough to last you until the next sale. this won't happen overnight. It will take a while. you are building one can or jar at a time. I am not advocating buying a years worth of food on one shopping trip unless of course, you live where you get to the store once a year! This isn't about hoarding. Mints about keeping enough of an item you use on a weekly basis to last you until it goes on sale at the RBP again.
I am still getting some things at times at the RBP or lower lately like refried beans, pasta sauce, and vegetables.
Last night was taco Tuesday. I dissected one as covertly as I could. There was one T of taco meat, at least a cup of lettuce, and a tablespoon maybe of grated cheese on three tacos with a garnish of about three tomato cubes. In their defense, they were all you can eat for five bucks. I think the guys use ot for a contest, how many can you eat! They certainly don't have to worry about too much fat or cholesterol!
We had chicken, potatoes, and mixed vegetables one night last week and chicken,stuffing,and green beans another night. Both what I would consider a decent dinner that was balanced. My goal is to feed a family decent, well balanced meals, on a very thrifty budget.
Batch cooking meat is beneficial because it saves time, makes meal time easy when you need it to be, and allows you to portion control and not waste food. Whether you have a bog family or are cooking for one or two you can break down bulk priced food into meal sized portions.
