Help??

Do you meal plan? That could be a start.... Plan out your meals for the week and figure out what will fit in your budget (shop the ads / coupons etc). You can get a variety of foods on a small budget. Also, you don't need to eat meat for dinner. You could substitute with beans or other protein sources! I hope that helps!

sounds like fresh fruit n veggies are out if you are buying to last for 2 weeks. So maybe check out other tinned foods, or frozen foods (veggies n fruit fish. meat.) As simplysara suggested maybe try to meal plan ahead of the shop? Maybe make some meals with ground turkey or chicken and freeze them to eat later in the 2nd week. I think planning is the key. Good luck hun x

Okay, So my mom gets paid every other week and at the end of the second week i have to eat the same thing almost every day because we have NO food.
This time its been Tuna sandwiches and im getting REALLY sick of doing this..

Does anyone have ANY tips on what else i could buy when we go shopping so that this doesn't happen???

I understand where you're coming from. I've been there. When funds are low, I usually eat a lot of beans and rice. I'll get the canned beans (which are usually under $1 each) and cook up some brown rice. It gets a bit boring after awhile, but you can spice it up with avocados, or tomatoes, or whatever you find. Very filling, and cheap.

Thanks seagullswokeme thats a FANTASTIC idea!!!!

No problem! After awhile, it does get a little boring, but it still fills you up. One day, a lady I work with gave me a half of a tomato and I added that to my beans and rice dish and it was so delicious! I've also discovered that if you chop up a bit of green pepper and add it to it (I warm mine up in the microwave at lunch time) that it adds a little more moisture and flavor so it's not so dry.
