My grocery bill is steadily climbing and I am not sure what to do. I make too much for SNAP. Any tips or tricks? It’s just me in my household, so would buying in bulk be worth it?

Edit: I want to thank everyone for their responses. I have a lot to think about.

    You based your impression on a hotel breakfast buffet. That’s bread designed to be shelf-stable, not delicious. Let me assure you right now, we have bakeries here, and not just in supermarkets.

      If you think it’s normal that a hotel breakfast buffet (in a very expensive hotel at that) doesn’t serve good bread, I think it underscores my point.

        Your point was that good bread (well, “edible”) is hard to find in the US. It’s not, though. Yes, we have bad bread too, and maybe you don’t where you live, and that’s great. But the existence of bad bread does not mean good bread is unavailable.
