you know since I've been saving.. I tend to add veg to my meat.. and my bill has gone down to about £80 a week with nappies and baby formula..

that would be about the same in USA of $80 cuz the price of a can of coke is £1 as the usa is $1.. the only difference is that you guys have coupons out there.

I've been only buying the cheapest stuff in the store.. and my meat and rice and that in ethnic stores..

Like a pizza.. I top with a piece of chicken cut up and some xtra cheese and ragu sauce..
then I cook pasta with 1 chicken breast fillet (larger from the butcher) and use the rest of the ragu.. I buy the really really cheap pasta noodles.. and it tastes the same.. just add a few spices.

I also boil a few eggs and make chicken salad with maynaisse (the cheap kind) and serve some bread on the side.. (the cheapest bread cost 24 cents here)

so it is definately possible..
