Here are the best ways to save money.

1: Buy a Deep Freezer!

Protiens:

Beef: Look on craigslist for farmers nearby that quarter out steers. Negotiate and look, as some ranchers want a premium. Your goal is to get around $5 a pound. Things keep going up.

Pork and Chicken:

Go to rural areas to buy chicken and pork. Whole chickens can be purchased frozen for under 10 dollars. They have deals here; buy and freeze. Save a lot, piggly wiggly.

Save chicken bones; make stock; so much protien, minerals and nutrients in the bones, wings and all.

Pork roast and pork butt is a lot cheaper. Soups, roasts, slow cooking, barbeque, smoking; tamales if you want.

Farmers market:

You can negotiate and do deals; as well as bulk deals at your local farmers market on meat. If you buy multiple, people are more apt to do this. Stuff that doesn't look as nice; blemished food stuffs for vegetables.

Hunting:

Deer isn't bad; and it's about 50-60+lbs of meat all said and done. If you process yourself, this will be harder than taking it to a fella but still a lot cheaper.

Turkey:

Very easy to process follow chicken rules. Look on line get a large pot for scalding.(defeathering)

Gardening: (Easy grow) Potatoes (ace sells starters) Sweet potatoes Green beans Green Onions Squash

Misc.

Butchers sell trimmings from time to time. You can make stock from this.

Buy white rice in bulk, buy a 20 dollar rice cooker 2:1 (cups of water to rice)

Dry beans if cheap; buy in bulk.

Finally;

Food pantry. God is good and put servants in this world to try and help folks in trouble. If you think it's the homeless; guess again. People are treading water everywhere. It's your neighbors.

God bless and keep you. Pray to the one who can save. Jesus Christ.
