How to beat inflation: Take the bus!
Trying to use that advice in most of the U.S. (geographically speaking): Uhh...
Oh, and sell your car and don't do cancer treatment for your dog and don't buy in bulk (really?) and give lentils a chance.
"Don't buy in bulk" is terrible advice unless you qualify that with "don't buy more than you can use before it goes bad" or "check the unit price for each size on the shelf and get acquainted with your calculator to make sure you're getting the best deal".
I will second the "give lentils a chance" advice if you haven't had them before. The flavor reminds me of potatoes. However, they aren't the cheapest starch in my area. There's a reason rice and beans is the stereotypical poor people's dish.
