best way to spend 9$ on groceries

alright, I got 9$, what kind of stuff should I try and get?
I have peanut butter already so I think a loaf of bread would be a good idea.
other suggestions?

a loaf of bread
perhaps look for some discounted canned foods? like thos 3 for 1$ beans I always seem to find
you can't be very picky with 9$... when I'm hurting for food I usually shop for those discounted steaks but even then they're a few bucks a pop.
I would be considering going hunting or fishing for food if I ran out of money and needed to eat for 6 days.

Cook the ramen noodle, add butter, thick salsa and a chicken breast or a porkchop and you have yourself a decent meal.

i lived off of 10.00 a week and this is how.
1 loaf of bread 10-15 ramen 2 packs of the cheapest hotdogs eggs 2 packs bologna
you could also cancel out the bologna or eggs and get a couple of the .99 frozen pizza's or the 3/1.00 frozen burritos.
hope this helps. dont feel bad man, we have all been there or will be there one day.

White rice is cheap. You can eat like 2-3 cups of that a day and it's cheaper than ramen.

That is pretty much what I ended up doing 1 loaf of bread 2 packets of Turkey 2/4.00$ and 2 boxes of lo mein 1.00$ each
I think I will continue to be a smart shopper even once I have money. I have really learned out to stretch my bucks out

same here. awhile back when i was making good money both my chick and i made a budget for our random spending expenses. it turned out we could spend 80.00 a week on food, but whenever i went shopping i would come home with some pretty decent shit and only spent like 50.00. that extra 30 always went to gas and or beer/ bud.
after i was laid off we started eating a lot of fast food but realized real quick we were spending more at mickey d's then at HEB so we made a stupid bet one day and it went a little something like this. we had about 20.00 to spend on food and we were going back and forth on what we should buy so i gave her 10.00 and told her to get whatever she wants, but whatever she buys i cant touch. same for her, she couldnt eat anything of mine. turns out my shit lasted me all week and all her shit was gone in a couple days. granted, her shit might have tasted a little better, but i at least i was still eating.
)im not fucked up, i shared all my shit with her. i just wanted to prove a point.)
