之前喺另外一個discussion提過一個sample grocery list （for 2 people），好多都覺得唔可行，不如喺度繼續討論啦。
Sample grocery shopping list (1 week supply)：
pre-slice meat about $4/pack. (1 pack per day) $28
3 onion $2
3-4 tomato $2
bean sprout $1
Veggie (3 pack) from T&T (half pack per day) $7
Fruit (e.g. 7 orange ~$5)
bread $3
total: $48
the remaining $2 is for "柴米油鹽"
Bread is actually for breakfast, lunch I have left over from dinner the day before.
For fruit, $5 can actually get you more oranges if it's small one. Assume $0.69/lb, medium size orange is about 0.6-0.7lb. So $5 can get you 10-12 oranges.
Some people mention "soup". One 火炭牌青紅蘿蔔湯 pack is about $6.99. It's good enough for 3-4 days for the two of us. Of course, if the soup is fancy with whole chicken, pig bones, then it's different. But I consider those soup pack pretty decent.
For meat budget ($4/day) I am giving it rather generous. If I buy lean ground pork, it's $3.99/lb and usually cook 0.5lb per day, even cheaper.
with digital home phone, i think its not really necessay.
everyone have mobile these days,
and if u really really want to get something for home, i suggest http://www.freephoneline.ca/
it works the same way as shaw digital phone. all you need to buy is the box.
u are paying too much, strongly suggest you take a look at red flag deal. I did a quick search and found people are getting 60-80 for what the service u are getting plus hdtv and pvr
shaw, high speed internet.
I dont really need that much of speed anyway
there was a promo earlier this year, from 24hours and metro, and I got extended for another 6 months.
i know my coworker using telus is paying $10 too. if u live in an appartment, there is usually these kind of deals, i suggest you check red flag deals site. i read it almost everyday for deals
