We often hear the GOP rant about how you can make it on $30 a week per person, in fact so much so that they want to cut that amount to $26 a week per person.
Now it is possible to do this, and eat well. but it is not easy.
It is great to find people who can, and when they give you ideas on how to lower your cost and save money, it should be shared.

the peaceful mom has been bloging about raising four teens on an income of $28,000 a year. Her food budget is $125 a week or $500 a month. SNAP would give a max of $780 in Ohio for a family of 6.
Does this mean everyone can do it? NO! nor is it easy peasy, it takes a lot of work. It is still amazing that she does it and i've used some of her tips to help lower my costs and help the people the church helps with SNAP and other assistance.
Worth a visit in my book.
