My fall broccoli which was a bust last year, decided to survive and I just picked a mess a couple days a go, it would have been primo, had I picked it a week earlier. Laziness. And my winter broccoli is coming on strong.

To address your problem more directly: You have to find out which supermarkets carry low priced veggies. Walmart SELDOM does. One of our regional chains markets more directly to Mexicans in our area, and frequently has 5 pound sales on veggies. (It used to be 10 pounds which was just too much for the 3 of us). Another MUST DO, get the local paper at least on the day that grocery ads run (usually Wednesday). Because we eat lots of veggies we need to go shopping twice a week anyway, so we choose the stores with veggies and meat on best sale.
