Shopping with Food Stamps: Week 3

Virginia is finally ready for spring! Don't say it too loud -- you might scare it away. But I am happy to report that we have emerged from the frigid temperatures and knock-you-on-your-ass winds and are starting to see the first signs of spring.

I even slept with my windows open. 

Something about the fresh air put me in the mood for bright flavors and aromatic herbs. I didn't realize until I got home that half the stuff I bought was green.

Here's my haul:


MorningStar Crumbles - $5.94

Bread - $3.98

Tortillas - $2.08

Fettuccine - $0.98

Buttery Spread - $3.98

Guacamole Cups - $4.18

Basil Plant - $2.98

Angel Hair Cabbage - $2.18

Curly Parsley - $1.07

Frozen Broccoli - $1.16

Lemon - $0.58

BBQ Sauce - $2.28

Crushed Tomatoes - $1.52

Tomato Paste - $0.86

Pasta Sauce - $1.67

Chickpeas - $0.86

Lentils - $1.16

Lemonade Packets - $1.98

Blackberry Lemonade Packets - $1.98

My total at Walmart was $45.18.

 

Stay tuned to see what I ate!
