Rave! Cheap canned soup!

Post by JCShutout »

Hey, atleast its not chili.

Today I went to the grocery store to get some beets for my salad at lunch when I saw a huge display of progresso soups (big cans) for $1 each. I bought 21, and am thinking about going back after work to buy another 10 or 15.
Got me a lot of lentil, tomato, veggie and some french onion soups. I haven't had french onion soup in years. Now I have some tomato soup to go with that super gouda grilled cheese someone else posted about.

I found some Healthy Choice soups (also large cans) last week for the same price without looking and have 5 or 6 left. There are just cans of soup all over my car. Yay for deals!

The healthy choice Country vegetable, Split Pea and Ham, and Bean and Ham have been staples that constantly occupy a place in my cabinets for almost a year and a half now. Very good stuff and very affordable and not too bad for you, either.

Make sure you keep all those cans and push them to the recycling center in a grocery cart.

JC I've never seen anyone that is so cheap about their food and you're the only person I know that can eat can after can of soup/chili on a daily basis.

What do people usually eat on a daily basis?

lol, yeah, but its one meal a day and just on workdays, so its really 5x/week. And like I said, its part of a meal along with salad or leftovers from whatever I cooked for the week.

That's not so bad then. It still cracks me up though when you make a post about buying 20 cans of soup/chili. Do the checkout people say anything to you?
