you get an automatic 5% off when u register for an acc with ur northeastern email and it makes it easy to see what coupons are there/ free delivery through instacart and when u shop u get points that can go to money off

i’m also a girl who isn’t the best at eating good. so keep in mind if you’re someone who’s gonna be buying a lot of protein or like organic stuff bc that’s what’s the most expensive

I average 135 a week aka 540 a month, eating 3 meals a day: breakfast: (eggs,bacon,toast) Then lunch (leftover dinners, or sandwich) And dinner(pastas, ground beef, chicken, rice, salad, etc) Plus snacks (fruit, yogurt, granola, protein bars, etc)

at first it was around 300 a month for groceries but since being poor i’ve been able to stretch small amounts of food over a month so really it just depends on your eating habits
