How much can I save if I switch my diet to Top Ramen Noodles?

(dana 35 and dana 30 with detroit lockers and 4.88 gears new u-joints and ball joints front needs a diff seal, i ran 37" boggers with this setup for a long time, just kept everything greased and frequently changed the u-joints and such $750 non negotiable, i don't need to sell them. )


Yeah and I really can't afford them but this is a sweet deal.

Can I survive on noodle soup?

Prolly for a few months. They are even cheaper by the case. My first and second semesters in college were survived on by eating every evening meal of Ramen Cup o Noodles. Had an egg biscuit for breakfast and whatever sandwich was on the special at the cafeteria ($0.50 each) I lost about 20# but was never real skinny.

Myself, I soak dried beans for 48 hours, and then eat them cooked for 20 minutes with rice.

Dried beans and rice is even cheaper than ramen. Better for you, too.

And don't forget the PBJ!!!

LOL True true,
I guess no Top Ramen now (even though I just had one) or the rice and beans as the seller Emailed me back that the diffs just left last night after I Emailed.

Would have been nice to have them ):
