    Fresh fruits and veggies are super expensive here during the off seasons so I think it depends on that as well.

    For me it is opposite. Convenience foods are much more expensive. Snacks can be a budget killer... boxed cereals are a treat.

    I go to the actual grocery store maybe once a month. :confused: Like Needa I grow/swap/freeze berries, fruits, nuts and veggies and stock my freezers during harvest season for the winter. Meats come bulk from local farms/fishermen. Eggs from my neighbor in trade for berries.

    I like buying local from Farmers Markets (usually hosted by City Hall) and direct from local farms. The food is better, the costs are a fraction of chain stores and I feel connected to my community.
    - Unless otherwise stated, all my posts are personal opinion and worth what you paid for them.
