Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 19 – Tough Day

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 20, 201012 Comments

As I have mentioned before, I should have thought through that I really don't enjoy shopping or cooking before I decided to attempt this challenge. Add another thing I should have considered to that list: eating on $1 a day is not fun when you move around a lot. I have a house sitting job…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 18 – Disappointment

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 19, 20104 Comments

After getting all excited about the Kraft sample pack I received yesterday (and doing my little happiness jig around the house), reality set in when I went to the grocery store to claim my Deli Fresh sandwich meat (I was looking forward to having one for lunch) and finding that the store doesn't stock the…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 17 – Different Perspectives

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 18, 201015 Comments

Day 17 proved once again that you look at things from a very different perspective when you are eating on an extremely limited budget. I am still trying to digest the meaning behind the fact that it was worth it to me to buy tampons to get a free jar of peanut butter. Today I…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 16 – Over The Hump

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 17, 20104 Comments

Day 16 marks me having passed the half way point of this challenge. It also marks the first day where I am actually under the $1 a day maximum I have to spend on food (16 days, $15.75 spent) which bodes well for me for the rest of this challenge, especially since I have managed…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 15 – Tampons & Pantiliners

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 16, 201023 Comments

I knew when I decided to try and eat well on $1 a day that the challenge would make for some interesting quandaries which I would have to consider along the way. Little did I know how far down the rabbit hole I would eventually step in the search for free food. It is a…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 14 – Two Weeks Down Summary

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 15, 20103 Comments

Two weeks down and just over two weeks to go! It certainly has been an interesting two weeks and I have discovered a number of interesting things about myself and buying food while doing this. When I announced to family and friends that I was going to attempt this, their main worry was that I…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 13 – I Hate Shopping

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 14, 20104 Comments

Today was an extremely busy day. I spent the vast majority of it going from grocery store to grocery store buying cereal for local food banks in my area to take advantage of the great cereal deal where you can get it for free / nearly free. A day of shopping confirmed what I already…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 12 – Score!!

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 13, 201018 Comments

The grocery store gods looked kindly upon me and made this month a whole lot easier. Safeway started a huge breakfast cereal sale that includes Kellogg's cereals where a catalina coupon (the coupons you get from the cash register that are good for your next purchase) is still active until this Friday 5/14. What does…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 11 – Fingers Crossed

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 12, 201012 Comments

Although I hoped to wait and see what the next week's grocery ads looked like, I decided that buying a bit of food was in order. Unfortunately, this didn't work out quite as smoothly as I had planned. The problem when eating on only $1 a day is that when you make a mistake, even…

Eating Well On $1 A Day: Day 10 – One Third Done

$1 a day challengeBy JeffreyMay 11, 20101 Comment

I am finding that having a busy schedule is not conductive to eating on $1 a day — well, at least not when it comes to making meals with limited amounts of food when in a hurry. I'm currently at a crossroads waiting to see what the grocery store sales are going to bring on…
