How do i keep my Food Bills down while Eating Good Quality Food

in #food7 years ago (edited)

As a follow up to yesterdays blog about my food intermittent fasting day

One of the things i believe in strongly is "you are what you eat" So I'm a big believer in eating quality food

My style of buying is bulk buying and offer buying and storing. So in effect when you bulk buy you are actually buying extra days of free food.

Canned food i only buy when they're on offer and usually buy 10 cans at a time. Easy to stack and they last for ever if you store them properly.

I bulk buy teabags when the price is around 1p per bag (240 for £2.50). Picked a few boxes up yesterday :)

I buy my meats in bulk from muscle food and then divide it all up into meals and then freeze it. A £50 pack of muscle food usually makes around 35 to 40 meals for 2 people. So less than £1.50 for 2 chicken breasts

Veg is a bit harder so its best to buy what's in season and buy from your local green grocer if possible ( i like to support local business's)
If i do buy sacks of veg then they must be storable such as sacks of onions around £1.75 which can be hung in a shed or garage.

It may sound a large outlay but you recoup the outlay and more at the end of the month when you still have food in

I'm tight and i don't like paying for overpriced good so i wait and just pick up the bargains.. Patience is a virtue :)

Seeing and reading what you do and how you do it, you could be a long lost relative of mine.
Pre-packaging my own bulk food, saving money and stretching every penny and being preparing for when times are lean.
