New way to get cheap groceries!!! Check this idea out.

[lildreamer316]

I ran across this on one of my coupon forums and this is a pretty cool idea if you can budget for it. It is a food ministry open to anyone where you pay $25 a month and you get a box of groceries. The menu is posted on the website every month. They also have packages of meat for a separate price. For example; this month's menu is

1) 3 lb. Chicken Breast Filets
(1) 2 lb. Pork Riblets
(1) 1 lb. Choice Ground Beef
(1) 3 lb. Breaded Frying Chicken
(1) 1 lb. Ground Turkey
(1) Pkg. Totino's Pepperoni Pizza Rolls
(1) 28 oz. Betty Crocker Crock Pot Classic
(1) 20 oz. Progresso Steak & Mushroom Soup
(1) 3 lb. Apples
(1) 7.5 oz. Macaroni & Cheese
(1) 7 oz. Biscuit Mix
(1) 8 oz. Pasta Salad Mix
(1) 2 lb. French Fries
(1) 16 oz. Cut Broccoli
(1) 16 oz. Corn-on-the-Cob
(1) 12 oz. Breakfast Cereal
(1) Dessert
(1) Dozen Eggs

You bring your own box to the site (usually a church) and they load you up! That is all you have to do. There is no limit on how many boxes you can purchase. Sign up on the website and find where they are distributing; also the date for your pickup.

I think this is a great idea, and considering the possible economic problems ahead, probably something that we all should consider joining; since they get the groceries from a (for me) fairly nearby state. Also; no tax!!!

1. Sweetie, come over to my house.....

I will give you three times that for $25/month!

That is a great tip, you are wonderful to share....but then it seems like you are always wonderful!

2. Oh, I know

But for some who are not into couponing I thought it might hold some appeal.
Thanks for the compliment!!

5. I ordered from them last month.

The food is good. It isn't necessarily what I would pick out on my own, but it's all things I wouldn't mind having.

They also accept food stamps (or Lone Star Card for those in Texas).

I have told a bunch of people about it.
