BUYING FOOD
(Preview)
Hi all What is the best way to attack the purchase of food etc. I will be travelling alone so don't need stocks of food but I do like fruit / vegs, can do without meat. Is it best to try and stock up at the larger towns or is it cost effective to buy as required where ever you may be. Thanks Graeme
