BigV-- groceries are my number one expense. I have been trying to eat beans, rice and corn/salsa mixture and skip meat but I MISS MEAT! Protein fills you UP and the beans/rice thing only makes me swell up and then feel hungry in half an hour. It's ridiculous how much money one person can spend at the grocery. Add up stuff like TP, cleanser, shampoo, and animal stuff and you're at 100.00 easily. It's teh sucketh. and it's only going to get worse with the drought. the farmers here say Isaac HURT them rather than helped them. I'm getting a new storm door and I am prepared to go to food banks when I have to pay for it. (Old Storm door is original wood from 1957 and has dry rot and been thru two major storms and no longer shuts. Must have a new one - not a luxury deal at all. The storms coming thru Ohio are getting really nasty and I have to have a new one. During last storm, the plastic in the "glass" section of the door cracked in four places).

PM me for my addy to google my house and see storm door from '57!
