I've never read the circular before; seems like there are some good deals, if you're willing to be a little flexible in what you eat; or seasonal, cabbages are 19c/lb., corn beef is $1.59/lb. in honor of St. Patrick's day. - Ian
Reading the circular was a different experience. The worse thing about being on this budget--is the shopping. I couldn't get cereal b/c I couldn't afford the milk. My total bill originally came to $29.00 so I had to ask the cashier to return some items. I now have $1 left in my weekly budget.--Lelia
