I would like to buy in bulk, is there somewhere good to go online to order cheap goods like flour, sugar, dried beans, and just like basic foods? like to do all the cooking myself? i’m looking mainly for the following in cheap bulk:
Flour, sugar, beans, rice, and also vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes, lettuce. I dont really want to buy these things at grocery stores, it seems too expensive if i can get it in bulk. thanks for the help!
I work in a bakery and we use several distributors. I think it depends on what part of the country you are in. I live in California and I use US Foods and Bakemark. I also shop at Smart and Final and Costco. Costco has really good prices on flour and sugar. You’ll have to compare their prices on the other items you need. You could also try farmer’s markets for the veggies – let them know you will be buying bulk and they will probably cut you a deal.
My husband and I are expecting twins in July and I have been on bed rest for a while. I’m now off of bed rest and want to start cooking again for my family, but after my job loss we only have $150 max a month for groceries for us. My 5 year old son is also a picky eater. I just need any cheap recipes or even grocery shopping ideas. Thanks.
Congratulations on the twins!
If you can, it would be best to plant a garden if you don’t already have one and you can grow your own lettuce, tomatoes etc.
Definitely buy in bulk at Costco. You can shop once for the main stuff and it will last you ALL month. Just separate and freeze things individually.
Ground beef and chicken (cheapest)for the three of you that should last all month and only cost you about $40 at the most.
Milk & Eggs $8 (Milk and Eggs will last you all month too! Organic Milk lasts longer if it’s not opened. This helps because Costco sells Organic milk in packets of 2 or 3)
Oatmeal $6
Lettuce & Spinach $7
Block of Cheese $6
Bag of Potatoes $5
Bread $3
That’s $75 and you still have $75 left to buy fresh produce 1x week
You can budget yourself $18 a week to pick up basic produce each week such as bell peppers, cucumber, carrots, orange juice etc. If you can make it on less than $18 a week for produce, you can also get a frozen bag of mixed veggies to also last all month. Costco’s bag will probably last you 2 months if you alternate with fresh produce.
Cheap and easy recipies:
Breakfast: Oatmeal with sliced bananas, Potato, Spinach & Egg Fritatta, Pancakes, Crepes, french toast
