So sorry, somehow Mlem just deleted my message regarding what you would buy if you had $50 to get as much as you could food-wise (thought of it because I just spent $50 at Woolies shopping).
Assume you have a fridge, place to cook etc. Also, you can go to any supermarket etc. or multiple.
Edit: So… I hadn’t really planned for a longer period, but $50 got me:
Light burger buns, 4 burger patties, small tinned beetroot and pineapple. 2 small different types of mustards, another garlic sauce thingy, 2 mangoes, small handful of spinach, breakfast cereal, a small punnet of sliced mushrooms, 2 bottles of tonic (Fever Tree), a small bunch of broccolini and asparagus. (I think that was it?)
I'd buy vegies from the local
All veggies for $50?
Oh yeah i should clarify. I have a good vegie shop. They also have pantry items, dairy and sell baklava. I have 3 people to feed and they eat a lot of fruit so I could easily spend $50 in there.
