I need to buy $500 worth of non-perishable food items. I don't want to fill up my car with 1,000 cans of tuna, but I'm having a difficult time thinking of expensive items. What's the easiest way to go about doing this? Thanks!
Almond flour. Five pound bag is about $40-50 online, much more at stores. Coconut oil is pretty insane in price too. (IE - healthy food)
Why do you need to buy $500 in non-perishable food? Anyway, in answer to your question, how about preserved truffles? They aren't really a worthwhile purchase, but they should get you to $500 rather easily and compactly.
You can tell the OP didn't watch Supermarket Sweep in the 90s. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/bosSU0lXssk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Dealership has this deal where you donate non-perishable food items and they'll double the amount you paid and deduct the total from your service bill. So it's basically half off with the dealer making nothing. I need new brakes and service worth $1,000, so I'd need to donate $500 worth of food. I found this at Costco. http://www.costco.com/Silver-Lining-Smoked-Sockeye-Salmon-24-6.5-oz-Cans.product.100042816.html I just ordered 4 cases and I'm all set. Now I don't have to look like an idiot at the grocery store either.
