I don't know how they think we're all going to survive with these prices.

My local grocery chain has decent coupons, and a debit card with cash back on their brand of products, so I've been making a lot of use out of those.

Been buying a lot of large orders of cheap dry goods that can last a while like rice and beans. Some rice, some beans, throw some cheese and some sauces in there, get creative with some seasonings, and you can make some pretty bomb-ass burritos at home for super cheap. I'm not vegan/vegetarian, but I often make them without any meat (but use some "meaty" seasonings), and you can easily just skip the cheese if you wanna make it vegan, I suppose.

I eat a lot of beans and rice because it’s healthy. In bulk it’s cheap as well since I cook both.
