DH and I are both on SS. We both work a little to supplement our income. We always have a garden. I freeze mostly, but I do can green beans.We ahave two freezer full for the two of us. We grow almost everything that can be grown in GA. Veggies and fruits. We share with our children and some friends. So you would think that we'd have a low grocery bills. I will admit I don't look at the prices of groceries if it's something we need I buy it. We still have to eat. Having said that I do shop as thrify as I can. Coupons, sales food in season. I really like to shop at Aldi's first then go to Walmart for the rest.
We have our gas and electric on a budget plan so we don't get sticker shock. Last time we fill up our gas tank it was almost a $1000.00 and it will not last a year. But all in all we are in pretty good shape. I can still buy fabric and DH buys his toys. I buy something for Olivia almost weekly. Gas prices are what bug me the most. How can gas go up 11 to 15 cents over night :?: :?: :?:
