Bologna package: $1.50 Processed Cheese Singles: $2 White bread loaf:$2 Complementary Mayo Packets near the salad bar: free Combine all these together, and you have yourself sandwiches for days on end for just $5.50!

It has a GREAT flavor and when my husband is gone and I don't make large dinners for the kids and myself, a box lasts for lunch and dinner. The kids eat mac and cheese or spaghettio's on those days. Both of those are cheap too. four cheese rice = $1 mac and cheese = $1 spaghettios= $1 (off brand usually is less)

Ramon noodles and canned vegtables are about the cheapest you can get.

If you buy the generic brand, its like $2 for about a gallon of stuffing. You slap some mayo on some bread, a little pepper, then generous amount of stuffing... you got yourself a stuffing sandwich. You can make about 10 stuffing sandwiches for $3

Ilikethepixies 6 years 10 months ago Posts: 6051 Globally Banned	That's like a sloppy joe. I've been doing this new thing lately. Take one large tupperware container. Put in lettuce, spinach (raw), onions, tomatoes, shredded mexican cheese, and dressing (I prefer vinegrette). Place container, shake liberally. Top with brown rice, black beans, salsa, and sour cream. The result is a satisfying, yet healthy vegetarian taco salad of sorts.

Funky Guy 6 years 10 months ago Posts: 2638 Account Disabled	It might have been a day old but what the hell, I used it for lunch yesterday and today. I put some Pillers Beerwurst on it (great tasting lunch meat, not too bad for you and costs under three dollars) and Cracker Barrel cheese I saved a dollar on using a coupon.
