One jar peanut butter - $3
Two cheap loaves of bread - $2.50
One dozen eggs - $2.00
Ten packages of ramen noodles - $1.00

There's twenty sammiches and ten noodles, with the eggs for variety six or more times - 30 meals. Food for a week for under $9.

Leaving $11 for beer.

I agree!! B|

And I'd go with what someone else said too, buying a 10lb bag o' potatos is $1.50. I see you're back from the store already, but if you have to go out again, make sure you have some salt n' pepper and margarine (cheaper than butter :P) and you can make smashed potatos, oven-baked chips, fried tatos, home fries, hash browns, baked tatos, yumm....:)
Also rice and mac n' cheese are pretty decent prices.

$20 unfortunately is only 1/4 tank in my SUV...:(

Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

I have two teenagers at home, both girls. I can stretch $20 about 8-12 minutes.



I got you beat, I have two teenage boys. One of them is in college. $20 buys me two pages in one of the books he needed for a class:S

Plus I might even get a smypathy 20 on the way out.



Milk it now while you have the chance. They stop doing that once you get to be my age! :ph34r:

But, my "big shot" customers had a $1K happy hour last Friday night which broke the bank til next payday and/or I get reimbursed:D



Don't you hate waiting for those expense checks? I was wanting to get mine today (about 3K) but it looks like I won't have it until next week:(
I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Guess they love me more than your parents love you.



I think you're right! I know they've always loved my brothers more than me. Being the middle child and the only female sucks. :ph34r:

Actually, I think it's a skydiving thing. If I'm going to "waste" money on skydiving, they're certainly not going to give me any money to help the cause!
