So right off the bat I've already spent 49% of my maximum monthly allotment of SNAP funds. I only have $87,84 left to spend this month. That sounds horrible. On the other hand, there are a few high-price items here that I will not have to purchase for a few weeks. The olive oil should last me 200 days actually. The Cheerios and Maple Syrup should last me two weeks.
This is going to be interesting.

1. I removed the bananas and multigrain bread because I will not be eating those. See also: note 2 and 3 below.
2. Half-price here because I split the peanut butter with my son.
3. Half-price also because I share with my son.
