About how much do you spend per week Juice Feasting?

[monkapotapus]

Hi everyone,

I am just wondering what you spend average per week to juice feast?

Now, I know there are a ton of variables, but if you have a general # & what you get for that, it would be very helpful.

One more question: Do you spend more juice feasting or eating Raw? I know, again many variables, but just in general~;)

Thanks!~monk~

I have a farm where the bags of greens are one dollar a large bag...no spray or nothing on them!!! Otherwise I wouldnt be able to do juice so much.

Def less money on raw food. Juice is a bit more.

Worth every penny. I dont keep track. I simply buy whatever I need, what it is, it is.

Thank you for your response rawrawks~

I pose this question only because I went over bills & concluded I really need to tighten the reins......geez, good thing I just spent $100 on books the other day....:rolleyes:

I'm trying to see what will cost me the least amount of money, yet I still want a good mix of healthy ingredients....I don't know, right now I'm a little depressed over the whole money thing & everything else...:(

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer.

honestly i can't even answer that. depends on what i'm into in that moment.

if it's pineapple juice... well that costs more than apple juice.

but i figure i probably spend around $40 a week on a fast.

not sure how much I spend but I've decreased lately. I can get carried away with all the different things. The only thing I get free are tomatoes from my neighbor for now. Nothing is less than $1.20 per pd. I can eat 1lb of cukes a day. Trying to have water when I feel hungry to see if I really am.

Juice feasting is one galon or more of juice a day. I never tried that- I don't think I even would be able to drink that much juice.
When I juice fast after a few days , I want to dilute my veggie juice, because it becomes too strong for me. So when I juice fast, I don't spend more money when eating. Greens, carrots and celery and grapefruits are pretty cheap. I have bunch of tomatoes from my garden now.

Thank you for your responses!

I'm going to hit the farmer's market this weekend to see what I can score. :D

You can Grow your own Greens to Juice, if possible. The Sale Ads can also dictate what you Juice. If you choose, you can alternate Juicing one day and Water the next day, if your budget dictates it as you can also do Water and Juice the same day........Its your Journey and being Flexable Works.

Oh, I forgot to mention - watermelon juice is very economical, because you can juice a rind too.

[lisamarieraw]

you can juice watermelon rind? what if it's not organic?

[margoss]

I have to dilute my juice too, just too thick for me. I should juice the watermelon. The last 3 I bought went bad on me in just a few days. Too expensive to throw out. They just suddenly are bad in the am, bad watermelon taste...nasty.

Great ideas everyone! Thank you~

I'll be looking at the ads, hitting the farmers markets & seeing if I can get some late greens started in my garden~:D
