Welcome, I know about a budget, a lot of the staple fibers, pasta, potatoes and rice are farely inexpensive, especially if you can shop at an Aldi's, or Big Lots, or Dollar Store, you can get lots of rice and pasta cheap. I get a lot of chicken broth, low fat, to add to my rice which I can also find at my "budget stores" as I call them. Most dollar stores and other stores also have the "safe" dry cereals A LOT cheaper than grocery stores, like Honeycombs, Rice Chex, Corn Pops, As for the milk it is quite pricey, but I only use it to cook with or in my cereal. I put non-dairy no fat creamer in my tea. I also have, in the past froze cheese, I know you're not supposed to, but I haven't found soy cheese yet, I'm headed to a local health food store, but I'm going to ask them if I can freeze it, does anyone know if you can? That way you could buy a larger quantity and freeze it. I hope this helps.
