Eating on $50 a week?
4 bloggers attempt to live life on the edge.... of a budget

The trick is eating well, not 2 hotpockets and a cup of oatmeal a day. I find it interesting that the involved bloggers have trouble budgeting coffee into their week, maybe because I drink employer supplied coffee (the best kind). I like each participants' insight into the necessary spices for low budget cooking.


On budget struggles and splurging:
No surprise that $17 tofu hot dogs will cause your budget to collapse.
$112 a month now going to health insurance instead of coffee? Took you three years to figure that out?
These people have some very expensive taste, and are accustomed to very expensive foods.


Could I do it? Sure, I would undoubtedly increase the quality of food I consume, and probably be more conscious about the health implications of the foods I buy. Could you do it?
