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.

    Good advice, but you missed pulses.
    If bought dried and in bulk they’re quite cheap while being very nutritious.
    Canned pulses are a bit more expensive, but more convenient in handling.
    Ideally you you have lots dried ones for meals you prepare with foresight and some canned once when it’s spontaneous and you have little time for preparation.
    Put canned tomatoes in the mix and you have nice and cheap phytochemicals on top.
