I thought this might help when it somes to the grocery bills, especially those that are in my position where their income has been cut: http://www.angelfoodministries.com/ I have got information on some other things, but want to go thru what I have and then will post more information later on. Check this out though, if you haven't before. We are going to be giving it a try.
Angel Food Ministries is a great organization. They are trying to help people cope with the high cost of food. You can get a box of restaurant quality food for only $30 it consists of 4-6Oz. steaks, boneless chicken breast, pork chops, salisbury steak, chicken nuggets plus much more. It's for everyone, their are no applications taken and no regulations, you just order the food and pick it up about a week later. Check out the website!! It really is GOD sent for our hard times. They buy the food at cost and in Bulk and distribute within many states, eventually they expect to cover the whole country. PLEASE DO CHECK IT OUT, you can buy as much as you want. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS, ANNE:grouphug: WE NEED TO HELP EACH OTHER!!!!
We've ordered Angel Food before, and it is a great program. The only thing I'll caution you on, is to check the menu's. Some of the food in the boxes would be things our family didn't eat, so it was a waste to buy it. But if the menu looks good, it really is a great deal.
When you log on to their website you can check the menu. I am very knowledgeable about Angel Food. The menu changes each month they even have a Fruit and Vegetable Box. Please don't be shy, their is a site to order the food every 10 miles, Garner, Princeton, Dunn, Clayton, etc. They will have a table as you go in, you just have to give them a name, it doesn't have to be your own, pay them, they'll give you a receipt and the pickup date. How much easier can it get. We have people of all ages and income levels taking advantage of this. The church gets money for every box they sell, so it is helping them. THANK YOU, GOD BLESS YOU!
