    Eggs used to be an inexpensive protein source for many families and individuals. Last week, eggs and hamburger cost the same amount. Eggs used to be $1-$2 and are now $4-$5. This week hamburger is $2.89 and eggs $5. It’s an upside down world.
    If you have several stores near you I would encourage meal planning around sales items around shopping the lowest sale prices between stores. Meal planning with sale foods can save 30-50%. Avoid pre-made foods. A bag of rice $.080, 1 lb hamburger $2.89, 1 onion $0.50, 1lb carrot $1. Dinner for 2 adult and up to 4 kids under 12 is $5. Dinners $5x28= $140. Lunch & Breakfast $140. All meals for 4-6 people = $280/4 equals $70 a week. It can be less with plain oatmeal or French toast for breakfast and low cost lunches. Possible to spend $40-$50 a week. There a nutritious recipes out there that cost $2-3 a dinner. I admit no juice boxes or chips or fruit roll ups. However, there could be the occasional jello, cake with powdered sugar, pudding or birthday ice cream. But everything must be bought on sale, portioned correctly and planned.

    I'm struggling as I roll off in my new Mercedes.

      I owned a mercedes, and I was a janitor. Used mercedes don't sell very high, their rich looking cars and take a lot of money to repair. As soon as they roll off the lot they lose value. Let one thing even a light bulb gets blown and it will cost you to repair. You have to have an expert take off the whole front bumper to get to it to put in a new light. It's why people don't keep them long. I paid 1500. for mine. It lasted about a year before the light bulb blew out, then it got smashed it was going to be 1200 to get the light fixed and the other small repairs it needed. Just because you had money before doesn't mean you have it now. If he sold his car he might get 2500 you don't know how many miles are on it, and he knows it runs. He could take the 2500 buy a piece of junk that may or may not be any good. Now he's in worse shape, you shouldn't judge people because of the car they drive, the house they once was able to afford. Lots of people live in nice homes and eat rice for dinner. Struggling to keep the mortgage paid, so there not homeless. You don't know what is going on in their lives. There is no shame for going to a food bank to get food no matter what you drive or where you live.

      A car for $1500 +$500 tax and registration = $2,000 and lasts for a year. That’s $167 a month car payment to enjoy luxury. Plus sell it to a junk yard ($300) or for parts and ($1,000) and you are at $83 to $141 a month car payment. Not bad, maybe pretty good. Trade out every 1-2 yrs and live a luxury life.

      @monicavandeventer5429 2 года назад +1

      If you’re trying to live off of minimum wage then that’s a problem. Leave the minimum wage paying jobs to kids.

    • @monicavandeventer5429
      @monicavandeventer5429 2 года назад

      @Draper Scott exactly. That’s my point. Minimum wage jobs are for those barely entering the workforce. They work a minimum wage paying job while they study or gain the skills for a higher paying job.

      @monicavandeventer5429 2 года назад

    Well if minimum wage is $7.00 an hour than get a better job or learn a trade. Get your guard card certification and work as a security guard it pays $18.00 an hour.

    I hope people voting on November 8th will fill their car up with gas and buy a weeks worth of Groceries before they head to the Polls. When they get in the polling booth there are two choices. If they are happy with the cost of these things vote Democrat if they are not happy with the cost of these things vote Republican.
