A dollar a day diet????

Hmmm....so I visited Trader Joe's today to try and figure out what we would need to buy ahead of time for our road trip. Wow, I thought...it would be easy trying to shop on a dollar-a-day food diet, but it isn't. Oh what to purchase? Trail mix, dried fruit, protein bars, fruit, popcorn...so many snack items, but I'm not sure how to make it a dollar-a-day! Is that even possible? We even thought that maybe we would go on the Hallelujah diet while we were gone and live off of fruit and veggies...is that even possible on a dollar-a-day? We welcome any ideas of cheap and healthy food to purchase for the big trip. I said that it would be completely possible to live off our parameters if I stay stressed the whole trip as I don't eat when I am stressed, but Lynda is the opposite so that won't work either. I'm kinda worried we'll just have to break down and actually buy food...imagine that!
