I'm a student and have two children. I'm struggling with my budget at the moment and need some help.
I live in a small town with only one small, expensive supermarket. Buying food is becoming a problem as my budget is really stretched. Fresh fruit is very expensive but I don't want to scrimp on that. I'm trying to cook meals from scratch as I'm told it works out cheaper this way, and obviously it's healthier too.
There must be others here on a tight budget. How do you manage to keep your food costs down? Do you have any tips on how to feed a family on a tight budget?
