text: I budget roughly $25/month for my church food bank.
  
  I try to maximize value by buying non-perishables on-sale.
  
  Last week it was cans of tuna and Chef Boyardee pasta for $0.98.
  
  This week Heinz pastas for $0.88 and 12-pak cases of Kraft Dinner for $5.99.
  
  Keep you eyes open to deals in the weekly flyers - Food Basics and Fresh Co are particularly good for this.
