Pizza or chinese food or none?

im hungry but heres my dillema i have basicly nothing to eat at home but sandwhiches which i have made constantly pasat couple days but the thing is i only have $79 and i need to last me at least 2 weeks till my next paycheck i dont usually go out anywhere so saving the whole $79 would be easy but i dont want to eat sandwhich again.



PS- pizza costs maybe $40 ( not including tip i think )

chinese about $50 ( because it's delivery and i cannot go out due too foot its broken )



if you say pizza which one?Pizza or chinese food or none?
Just eat sandwiches, you really can't afford pizza or Chinese.

Another idea would be to get some help. Start calling up friends and family and see if you can get someone to bring you some groceries, which you will pay for of course..
$40 for pizza? What type of pizza are you buying?



I've never seen pizza go for more than $30 and even that was really expensive pizza, you should be able to get it for $12 for a whole pizza that should last you a couple of meals.



yeh, chinese is too expenisve, at $50 a meal you can only eat for 3 and half days or less.Pizza or chinese food or none?
If you ask me, Chinese. I can get dinner for about $25 for the 4 of us and have left over for at least 2 days. I say Chinese goes further for the money and while I LOVE cold left over pizza, left over chinese is better.
You could get chinese food for real cheap, man. It only costs around $5-6 dollars for entry. Hope it helps.Pizza or chinese food or none?
WUT? I would go to a local pizza shop %26amp; get 2 slices of pizza for like 5 bucks...?
What I would do is call someone and have them pick up some groceries for you...What a waste to spend 40 to 50 dollars on take out.....................How can you justify that?????????????
Your foot is broken ... you don't have crutches?

$79 will not feed you for 14 days. If you spend it all on Pizza, you will eat for 5-6 days max. On Chinese food, you'll get another day or two.



You MUST get someone to pick up some groceries for you ... a friend, a relative, a neighbor, a volunteer through a community organization or social services. You must make every penny of that $79 work for you, to keep you healthy, to give your body what it needs to heal that bone.



This week buy:

- 7 boxes of Kraft dinner (to last 2 weeks)

- 2 lbs of butter or margarine (to last 2 weeks)

- 1 carton of milk (to last one week)

- 1 bag of large carrots (to last two weeks)

- 2 heads of broccoli (to last two weeks)

- 4 oranges (to last two weeks)

- 4 apples (to last two weeks)

- 1 carton of eggs (to last 2 weeks)

- 1 loaf of bread (to last 1 week)

- 1 bag of popcorn (not the microwave type that is bagged ... you get much less popcorn for your money -- popcorn will fill you up when you are hungry, and has at least some sort of nutritional value. If you can't cook popcorn on the stove top, don't even bother wasting your money on microwave popcorn)

- 4 cans of tuna (to last 2 weeks)

NEXT week:

have your friend pick up some more milk and bread, and if there is enough money left over, a few porkchops and more fruits and veggies.



If you have any cooking skills, substitute drop the Kraft dinner and tuna fish from your list, and get beans and rice, onion and green pepper, and cook up pots of those.
