For less than one dollar you can begin saving money for you and your family. Would you believe that you can spend less than twenty dollars for over 70 pounds of fruits, vegetables, grains, treats, beans, and foods for all three daily meals? For less than it costs to feed your pets for a week you can feed your family for a week. How?

By using the rule of thumb for dieters; eat fresh, unprocessed, whole foods. By buying bulk beans, grains, and corns, ECT. You can save a ton of money, feed your family a healthy vegetarian diet, and potentially increase your family’s state of health. All while spending far less than the average grocery shopper.

Instead of buying canned, processed goods, turn your attention to whole foods. Rice, Oatmeal, potatoes, Eggs, popcorn, apples, garbanzo beans, pinto’s, watermelon, banana’s, carrots and too many more whole foods than I can type here, can all be purchased for a fraction of the usual shoppers total bill. Be creative and be health conscious. The more you gear your conscious efforts towards healthy alternatives, the more you will find more deals for a dollar or less.

Take a second look at those canned goods you are purchasing. Unless you are buying them on sale, or generic brands, you are paying more for processed goods than you could pay for the fresh alternative. In certain situations, the canned goods can be a smart secondary purchase. Look at your purchases in bulk form to see big savings too.
