Had a competition pop up on Facebook advertising you could "win a chance to feed your whole family for free for a year". The prize is a $2000 gift card. Just over $38 a week. Yeah it would be nice to win, but the false advertising with this sort of ad is bullshit.

$38 a week is technically doable on rice and beans. Corporate overlords say you need to bootstrap harder.
