[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 683513, member: 16024"] My Difficult Child step-son rents a room from a young couple with kids who struggle to pay the bills often, so he finds any food he leaves in the fridge or freezer may or may not still be there when he wants it. This winter he would often put his refrigerated items outside to keep. But we live where it stays below freezing for months at a time, so not an option down south. Aldi is great for a lot of things. They have bagged frozen veggies for stir-fry with a sauce packet that is pretty good and an easy, quick meal. I think it is in the $3 range and is more than enough for two or more meals for a single person. Add some chicken and it is a great filling meal. Their produce prices are the cheapest (at least in my area) BY FAR. I can usually get a pineapple (for example) for $1.99, where at the local groceries they are $3-4 each. And their produce is good. I use their ad to price match on fresh produce at the local grocery and get it often for 50% or more off the store's price. [/QUOTE]
