I've always been pretty conscious of prices and looked for sales.
These days with neither of us working full time it's pretty damn
important to do so if we want to eat well. When stuffs on sale dirt
cheap that's what we get and adjust the menu to accommodate. Sooner
or later things will pick up and at least one of us can land a real
job, but even then not much will change as far as what we buy and eat.
We eat very well and I know we spend less per week than any of our
friends do.
