Summer - Honeydew, grapes, peaches, avocados, corn, peppers, and tomatoes. Fall - Apples, pears, kiwis, cabbage, spinach, and squash. Carrots and Potatoes are fairly cheap all year.
Try using some instant Powdered milk. It costs considerably less per serving, and is a great source of calcium. Powdered milk may not sound that appealing for a tall glass of milk, but you will barely taste the difference in your tea, coffee, hot cereal, and other recipes that require milk. Powered milk also stays fresh for a very long time. This is also a great idea for a back up milk if you run out or for a single living alone.
