Alright- as I was making dinner I kept thinking about this. A meal for 5 under 7.00 at our house- 1 lb spagehti noodles- .77 from Walmart, Large can of Tomaoto sauce from Sams club 3.50-(only use 1/2 1.75), chunked up chicken cut from a whole chicken at 88 cents a pound- 88 cents, 1 yellow onion and several cloves of garlic for the sauce- 5o cents. 2 pack of bread from Sams at 2.50 only use one loaf 1.25, butter, .25, milk 1.00 GRAND TOTAL 6.40
II'm guessing alot of you have simular meals in a great price range. I am thankful for what we have. At one point my father as a pastor recieved a call from a chicken farmer who said he had more chickens then he needed and if my Dad was willing to come and kil them imself he could have as many as he wanted. Being that my mother was teaching at the time and I was only 3 he took me with. I still remeber watching him chop the heads off and the body run around. Also remeber the smell and mess as my mother plucked singed pin feathers and preped them for freezing.
