Each grocery delivery from Walmart has been different, so now I don't know
what to count on! I selected delivery between 6-7 pm. I kept checking my
phone and computer for an update. The update didn't come until 6. Very
annoying because this time I didn't get essential things, so once again, had
to place a small order at Safeway and hope they have what I need.

They did not have the peppers, celery, cottage cheese, paper towels or the
kind of ground beef that I wanted for the peppers. I had ordered some other
ground beef so just used a package of that.

They did sub yellow peppers for the same price. So I made out well $wise
there because yellow peppers cost considerably more. All but one were fine.
One had a blemish at the top but I was going to cut the top off anyway. It's
just... I really prefer green peppers for stuffed because of the firmer
texture. I had tried the other colors in the past as one of my friends said
a Costco Employee told her not to use the green. The other colors tasted
better. This was the first time my friend ever made stuffed peppers so she
had nothing to compare them to. I did try what she said but still prefer the
green. Oh well! Looks like what they said on the radio is true for this
area. We are having food shortages again.

The other strange thing is that I ordered a yellow onion for 38 cents. What
I got was a very large sweet onion for 48 cents. I'm not complaining about
that. I really wanted a sweet onion but the price was much higher than the
yellow. Much higher than the 48 cents I paid.

They are in the oven now. They look and smell good. There was a little extra
filling, probably because the onion was bigger than I expected. I made 10.
Won't have to cook tomorrow!

Why do you order stuff that you need immediately? Why not do your
orders a few days in advance, so you won't be running out of
essentials?

She is of course fabulating about this whole grocery shopping thing, she is just posting to get attention, *none* of what she says about *anything* is true...I'd aver it is a Giant Steaming Combo Plate of mental health issues - I'd guess bipolar at the *very* least - and just general stupidity/learned helplessness. As lagniappe she always plays the perpetually needy "victim" in all of her tall tales...

Basically, she apparently sleeps all day and is up all night "playing" on Usenet...she has nothing remotely useful to do with her life...in this latter respect she is in that same rarified company as our other Certified Whack Job, John Kuthe - in both sad cases, rfc is their sole social "connection" to the "outside world"...

So Doris, do *not* expect a rational answer to your *very* rational question...she will respond with hundreds/thousands of words of pure gibberish...she's many times more tall tales than even that crafty Arab dame of old Scheherazade...just call it Julie's *Ten* Thousand And One Nights, lol...

Bullshit... if you are short of money you'd not be paying for
delivery, grocery delivery prices are always higher than buying
directly from the store. You are one person, how much food do you
need that you can't drive to the store and place a bag or two of
groceries in your car. And you are supposed to keep your pantry
filled with non-perishables... and most all non-perishables can be
purchased on line and at lower cost than at the local markets... and
they are delivered right to your door! Don't you dare try to tell me
that UPS doesn't service BotHell.

I have tried a whole foods delivery, food came exactly as ordered,
although the pineapples were only about 2-3 pounds and but that was to
be expected, as whole foods is known to have the tiny pineapples.

I didn't say I was short on it. But I'm also not the type to just buy
whatever I want, whenever I want. I am one person and so is Justin. I rarely
ever go to the store for one or two bags of food, unless it is stuff I can't
get elsewhere. If I go to Sprouts, TJ's, Central Market, Whole Foods or just
to get wheat grass, then I won't buy much. But at Winco or Walmart? I almost
always have a full cart.

We've been told to stockpile again as they think there will be an impending
food shortage. I have plenty of dried and canned beans, rice, pasta, other
canned vegetables and a little fruit. Also extra salt, pepper and other
seasonings that we use a lot of. And come canned meat/fish. I just cleaned
out one cupboard. There was an old can of soup that I failed to use up in
time. It was a Winco brand. I'd had two. I did eat one but got oddly sick
after I ate it. I intended to throw the other can out and forgot. Please
note, I am not blaming Winco for my getting sick. Sometimes I get sick and
never figure out the reason why.

I have some canned food coming today. There is ravioli and soup. Not a lot.
We don't eat much of that, but I do like to keep some. I do have some chili,
chicken and dumplings, chicken ala king, stew and things like that. Again, I
don't like to keep a lot of that stuff, but it does come in handy during a
power outage. I have a gas water heater, so I can always put a can in a pan
of hot water. It won't get hot but it will warm it up.

I've learned the hard way not to stockpile frozen food. It's wasteful to
lose a whole freezerful of food.

I *don't* stockpile bread or produce. It spoils too fast for me to do that.
I don't buy bell peppers every week. And I wanted 10 of them to make the
stuffed peppers.

I don't stockpile meat. We don't eat a lot of meat. And these days, when it
comes to meat, I either go without or have to buy what I can find, which is
maybe just one package.

The last time I was physically in the store, they had sooo much of that fake
meat. Impossible or Beyond brands. It was all marked down and it was still
more expensive than meat. There's a big push for us to eat that crap and it
obviously isn't selling.

I am getting deliveries not for convenience sake. They are telling us that
we are in another bad wave of Covid and to stay home. So that's what I'm
trying to do. Makes it kind of hard though to place an order then not get
the items I wanted for a planned meal. This makes me try another store. The
way things are, you can not cancel an order for any reason. You just have to
take what you can get.

Not really. I have an Amazon Wishlist and I likely won't buy most of what it
on it. If I am grocery shopping and see good prices on things that are not
on my list, I might buy them. I did *not* buy the Uncle Ben's cooked rice
pouches that were next to Nothing. I've watching the price drop. Clearly
they bought too many.

I bought that stuff when it first came out. But after the one moldy pouch...
Nope. I did briefly touch a pack. Seemed hard as a rock. I toyed with the
notion that Justin might eat it. Might. Nope. Might is not good enough no
matter the price. Didn't buy.

I rarely ever pay full price for anything. Dollar Tree is an exception. Heh.

I don't generally follow recipes. I used 10, yellow bell peppers, tops cut
off and seeds/membranes removed. I prefer green but this is what they sent
me. Salt and pepper inside the peppers.

Filling was a und of ground beef, 14ish oz can chopped, Italian seasoned
tomatoes and maybe 1/4 cup water. The liquid helps break the beef down to
smaller pieces. One chopped, large sweet onion. Additional seasonings, salt,
pepper, basil, oregano and parsley. Cook and break up until the meat is
cooked through and most of the liquid is cooked down. Add the powdery kind
of Parmesan in the green can and some cooked, long grain, white rice. I
didn't measure but probably used a cup of cheese and 1.5 cups of rice.

I cooked them in two baking dishes so I wouldn't have a giant dish in the
fridge. Pour red sauce on the bottom of the dishes. Just a little. Add
peppers, stuff. Pour the rest of the sauce over. I used two cans of cheap,
Hunt's brand with cheese.

Bake in a preheated oven. 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. Top with a
goodly portion of shredded Mozzarella. Turn oven off and let sit until the
cheese is melted.

Those prices are not cheaper than brick and mortar stores. I never buy Chef
Boyardee spaghetti but the other verities are $1.28 per can at Safeway. I
just bought the Overstuffed Ravioli. Normally I get them on sale for 88
cents per can, but I usually have to buy 10 to get that price. I will check
the price at Walmart. 88 cents. I do see that Amazon Fresh sells a single
can for 88 cents.

Great Value tomato sauce is 46 cents at Walmart. In general, I'm not picky
about tomato sauce. I do love the Red Pack brand, but it's not available
here.

Your typing on a keyboard is proof of NOTHING. Those links I posted
are of products and prices for shoppers in general, NOT for you in
particular... and they were in reply to the Dwarf, NOT YOU! No matter
what product you'll say you don't use it... you are ALL about EMPTY
words, NO proof. And Amazon very often shows even lower prices in the
store than on line, especially for bulk buying. I buy many pantry
products by the case and save a lot. You have lamebrain excuses for
everything, simply because you are a lamebrain.

I wanted specific examples, not just a listing of hundreds of cans
of tomatoes. But I'll play - once.

I took the second product listed that I know I can find locally -
Muir Glen diced tomatoes.

https://www.amazon.com/Muir-Glen-Can.../dp/B000LKZ9KK
(Notice the description is wrong - these are 14.5 ounce cans)

Those are $1.33/ea PLUS the cost of prime. Plus you have to buy 12
of them to get that price.

At my grocery store you only have to buy ONE of them and they're
only $1.28/can.

https://www.heb.com/product-detail/m...omatoes/305106
($1.32 is the curbside/delivered price - subtract 3% for in the
in-store price)

As usual, you failed the challenge as expected [clapping]

Let's take the next one one more.

> https://www.amazon.com/Goya-Tomato-S.../dp/B000SW2PJ4

$.58/can when you buy 48 of them on Amazon.

$.47/can at HEB when you buy ONE of them at HEB, saving you over $5
- MINUS the cost of Amazon Prime.

https://www.heb.com/product-detail/g...o-sauce/129082

Oops. Failed again, Mental Midget Pussy Katz!

> Dwarf Deluxe Dinners:
> https://www.amazon.com/Chef-Boyardee.../dp/B00DOSJ1S2

$1.28/can at Amazon when you buy 24 of them PLUS the cost of Amazon
Prime.

HEB.... <drum, roll> (I already KNOW the price of these by heart)

https://www.heb.com/product-detail/c...atballs/153075

$.88/can when you buy ONE of the !?!?!??! Holy Shit - a savings of
over 33%!

3 up 3 down struck out the inning! The score is

Sqwertz: 3
Puzzy Katz: A BIG FAT ZERO!

A little touchy today Puzzy Katz, eh? Are you feeling my pending
wrath this morning already? Lets see if you can froth and spittle
that well when you read MY previous post... Get ready to squirm.

But you were responding to Julie when you said:

"and most all non-perishables can be purchased on line and at lower
cost than at the local markets... and they are delivered right to
your door! Don't you dare try to tell me that UPS doesn't service
BotHell."

So Julie's prices ARE relevant to what you claimed.

I shop at Amazon all the time. Most of the food prices are not lower than
brick and mortar stores here! Sometimes they are though.

Yes, amazon is almost always higher price than most local stores
and even other online stores for many things. Sometimes you luck
out though.

The price at whole foods has come down quite a bit since amazon bought
them out.
