When I lived on my own my system was this-
Take my budget and plan a meal, something that I could eat for a few days and then some other foodstuffs that I could use.....
I"d write the amount I had to spend at the top of my list and then guesstimate what I wanted and what it would cost to purchase that item(s).
As I went down the list I would subtract the cost until there was no money left...
The secret was to overestimate the prices.....
example,
A loaf of bread........$1.00
Then you look for the .89 cent loaf..
Two cans of veggies...... 1.50
Then look for .59 cent veggies....

When I left the store I had enough money for a cheap hamburger fries and a coke.....
