My paternal grandad was a small town blacksmith. Dad told me that his dad didn't get paid in full with cash money very often during the depression but they did always seem to have enough decent food to eat from customers trading goods in lieu for critically needed blacksmith work.

Well I remember back when Walmart started selling their Great Value brand bean soup for 50 cents a can, it was on the shelf next to the Campbells at $1.38 a can. Near as my taste buds can tell it is the same stuff, just like one week they run Wallyworld labels and the next week Campbells but the same soup just a label change. Ain't to bad if you put some black pepper on it. Real good, fact is you make 2 cans a time throwing some mixed frozen vegtables and a half pound of ground beef, venison , antelope etc. Seasoned with garlic powder and some cayenne it's great. Guy can add noodles or rice or other things ever onct and awhile for variety. Can eat all right for $30-40 dollars a month and not starve. good way to lose a little weight. One time I went to the check out with 30 cans a bean soup in my cart and a bag of dog food. The gal that was the cashier said your dog is eating better than you are, I said rightly so her nose is better and she finds the birds I eat with the bean soup. Did I find everything I was looking for? Yep I said got it all, don't need anymore rubber dogshit from Walmart today. Going to Walmart is entertaining , kinda like crossing a zoo with a freak show. But onct every 2 weeks or so is often enough for me. All the other grocery store in this town make you have a membership card or screw you on the price you gotta pay f'em. MB My wife likes the Walmart store brand chicken noodle and bean soup better than the Campbell's.

joken2, yer wife is a good woman who is smart. A lot of folks think if they pay more they get better, that is true on some stuff but not with bean soup. This is exactly how Walmart makes their profit by screwing people who have perception and reality problems. Someone with little money has better reality than someone with a lot of money, Make do and find out what you can do for yourself. MB PS damn glad to know there are other people out there who know the value in a 50 cent can of soup.
