That's a life skills thing.
Let's say you have $20 for the entire week.... well... $6.73 buys you 5 lbs of rice https://www.amazon.com/Nishiki-Medium-Grain-Rice-Pound/dp/B00852ZN2U/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=rice&qid=1636504881&sr=8-2
That will last you like two weeks. In that time you can get other ingredients and make it even better. It doesn't take long to make. 10-20 minutes and boom done. In the time you're standing in line at Walmart I already have a meal ready.
This is 100% how you are raised. If you've never been taught how to eat cheaply you'll always waste your money cause you don't know any better. We should be teaching people how to cook cheap and easy meals.
Have in the past, but not this time. I used a medium grain rice and the texture more closely mimicked that of the fried rice I get at restaurants.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00852ZN2U/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This isn't horrible for 5 pounds of rice
And yeah, looks like tuna is OOS again (but it comes back quickly, I am blaming the two tropical storms heading to TX and LA for this sudden outtage)
I don't understand how Jeff got so rich, but please click on my Amazon Associate link to buy some rice, I promise it's the best rice you've ever had, and tell your friends about this link too please amazon.com/Nishiki-Medium-Grain-Rice-Pound/dp/B00852ZN2U/ref=CollectableRat-20
People have their own expenses, sure but they also may have disposable income that they prefer to help others with.. you could feel like you scammed someone if you were not being honest about the situation, but if you are, there is no problem.. If someone has their hand outreached and you take it, that's fine.
In regard to stuff getting there after the first - would you not be able to use it? Would having an extra bit of food around not be helpful for the next time you're waiting on a check to come through and are low on food?
You can get a ton of food for next to nothing. Stuff like
And so on.. there's a ton of relatively inexpensive stuff that you could add to your list, and multiple people would purchase various items, I'm sure. Someone who can't afford to put out $6 to help someone else out isn't going to do it, but someone who can would do it without thinking twice.
Plus, if you get some extra stuff from some kind strangers, you could potentially have a little money to put aside as savings - maybe the generosity of those other folks impacts your life positively - I think that anyone who contributes would be happy to know that their few dollars which they would never miss made a difference to you.
Consider making a wishlist on amazon. It could be really great for you.
I used a medium grain Nishiki rice with Red Star premier rouge
So I know using a sweet/sticky rice rice would probably make a huge difference, but I am still so surprised at the complete lack of flavor produced here. I was even afraid for a moment that I might of gotten covid lol
Nah, fuck whole foods. That shits expensive. If you can hold out for a few days heres 5 pounds of rice for $5.49 and 4 pounds of black beans for $6.36
> Also factor in food deserts. .... If you have no transportation, all your benefits will be ate up quick.
Actually I have factored that in. If you are paying $15/week for rice then stop shopping there. It only took me 30 seconds to find rice for $8.56/week online. Food deserts and transportation don't really matter when it can be delivered to your front door for free.
Your local Fred Meyer has rice for $8.64/week. Possibly less. I only checked the 1st page of results.
