We started shopping there after the new year. I love it. $5 bag of cashews that are super filling. They have little salami packs that are filling and delicious. 33c for a box of mac n cheese! Gotta love Aldi!

Yes, Aldi is huge savings. I don't even know what the topic is here but thought I would just confirm. Our Cedar Rapids Aldi has .98 cent a gallon milk, .36 cent dozen eggs. I also buy a big bag of queso cheese and tortillas. The kids love easy cheese quesadillas. Kwik trip has huge baker potatoes for .23 a pound if looking for low cost options.

Hope she feels better soon! I suffer from panic attacks myself and they are always rough. They are better since getting on medicine but I still get flair ups.

oh, yea, they have bags of frozen chicken [boneless] wings for like $4, and that's about 5 meals (with veggies)

https://cookingonabootstrap.com/ is another site for great ideas for ultra cheap meals. Jack's website is a mix of recipes and activism and personal blog. If you don't want to read about the politics of poverty in the UK, just search the recipe index. There are some fantastically tasty meals for cents. It's one of my go-to places for ideas when we're scraping for every penny.
