Not sure where you are near NYC, But I regularly buy 10lbs of chicken breast or boneless thighs for 1.99lb. for chopmeat I buy in bulk and most of the time for 1.99 lb at 10 lbs a pop. If I run out of the beef, can still get for 2.99lb.
During shoprite sales I get enough canned veggies, pasta, tuna and tomato sauce/pureed for a year for under 200, then really all for the year is some meat, fresh veggies and fruit.
Take the time and effort and you can save hundreds or a thousands a year or two on your shopping costs.
Trader joes, king kullen and some others are the most expensive places you can shop, and when dealing with meat I will go to grocery store or the local butcher when they have a sale and stock up for months.
I am single dad feeding 3, so every dollar counts in the end.
