Reply to comment by BacktotheFutureTmw in How Much Do You All Spend on Groceries per Week? by BitterDropToSwallow

Yup, I load up on my soup for the year at the can-can sale. I'll usually have it for lunch once or twice a week. Full price its like 4 bucks a can, when it does go on sale outside of the can can, its still around 3 bucks.

Its about a buck during the can can sale.

Same thing for stuff like tomatoes, beans, etc. I'll buy a few cases of stuff, stack it in the basement, and get through the year with it.

Also handy to have around if you have a bad storm or whatever.

Also if you have the space, get a chest freezer. When stuff like french fries or whatever go on sale, we load up on them. They will last a long time if stored right.

We also use the cancan for soup, I cook beef and chicken to add to the soup for more protein.

We also get tons of the can can stuff for food pantries. I can donate 2 to 3 times as much with those sales.

We got a small chest freezer beginning of Covid and keep it stocked on sale meats. Great investment.
