Dollar store has a bunch of name brands. I got Barilla pasta for a dollar and used a .55 off coupon, I also got puff facial tissue for a dollar with a .25 coupon, and Hormel pepperoni for .50 with a coupon. You can use up to four coupons any given day per household. Items can't be free unless you have a BOGO coupon.
You could , conceptually, find a dinner for five bucks. Barilla speghetti is .45 with a coupon for pronto, or 100 for regular. Hunts pasta sauce is a dollar, as well as brown and serve hard rolls. Parmesean cheese product is a dollar as well as a can of green beans for .79. Total 4.79. Now, that being said. I personally would not buy parm cheese product. I want the real thing. The green beans are Libby's and I'm not sure about the bread. In a pinch, you could do it.
They have mayo, brand name tuna,pickles and bread. They have oatmeal and fruit cups and peanut butter and jelly.
Conceptually, you could feed a family for easily 14.00 dollars : breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a pinch.
- Oatmeal, almond milk. Fruit cup.
- Tuna salad sandwich with pickles, potato chips ( or equivalent)
- Spaghett with red sauce. Green beans, sour dough hard rolls, parmesan
- Peanut butter toast for a snack
4 times 4 is 16.
Some things are cheaper at the dollar store; some are not. Some are good or better quality than a regular grocery store, some are not. This is an answer to you are stuck and need to eat. It has happened to is before. If I had a dollar store and a elementary kitchen, we would have been in good shape.
