on a food stamp budget 382.00 19th of each month family of five how can i stretch into next month kids r picky?

i'm not that good at grocery shopping or couponing but want to learn open for suggestions. i have kids snacks for school have to buy, husbands lunch, and meal ideas.
Answer
Being picky is a luxury they can't afford right now.
If the kids are older make them get after school jobs.
The kids can do chores that help with budgeting and meal prep.
For example they can help clip coupons look through sales flyers with you (I did that from about 1st grade with my mom).
Snacks for school were a luxury for me and my sister because we were poor.
Make a large meal and be creative with left overs. Meatloaf for example can be made into sandwiches. A chicken can be turned into chicken salad and soup.
See if you can get the free lunch/breakfast at the school for the kids and tell them to eat the school meal or what ever you have at home if anything (my mom told us school lunch or pb sandwiches, those were our options if we didn't want to starve).
You will have to learn to shop on a budget but make the kids help you. Do it when hubby can baby sit smaller ones (under the age of 10) and teach the older ones about unite prices, etc. so they can help you spot sales and one can carry the coupon holder and help you with taking out coupons.
My boyfriend loves meat so we go over to the meat department (he is probably like your kids in a candy store, licking his lips at meat) and we check out sales. Usually we get a whole chicken and ground beef because that is cheap (we can get a whole chicken at .89 a pound some weeks and ground beef for 1.49 a pound). On occasion we may find a roast on sale or after holidays ham may be marked down to .89 a pound (spit pea and ham soup anyone).
After that we try to buy things we make from scratch. For example all though rice a roni and lipton noodles are tasty, it's cheaper to get a big bag of Carolina rice. Save the pre made stuff for when you have a good sale going and can splurge a little.
Get generic brand of cream of condensed soups, those can be very good for easy recipes.
For cereal, get generic/bagged cereals. I find that cereal is the biggest rip off. You pay 3 times the price for that cute tiger on the box.
For fruits/veggies check out sales and try to think of the shelf life when buying fresh produce. Oranges/grapefruits tend to last awhile so if there is a good sale buy some and use those for snacks/breakfasts. Check out farmer stands/markets for good deal and consider doing pick your own fruits with the kids for a family outing that can save you money (for example, I got blue berries very cheap per pound by doing pick your own and I froze most of them). Also consider stocking up on frozen items for veggies/fruits when on sale.
Pastas are usually cheap when you buy generic and you can make some wonderful things with left overs if you use pasta (I have for example simply browned some ground beef and used canned sauce to make a filling dinner when added to some nice pasta).
Milk is every expensive these days. Save your empty milk bottles and buy gallons when on sale.
Why? Because you can freeze milk. Pour a little bit out (like a cup) and put the bottle in the freezer or if your family doesn't go through a lot of milk split the gallon in half by pouring into into a half gallon (or a couple of quarts if you really don't use a lot and free them!) Just remember to make sure you don't put a complete full bottle of milk in the freezer because it will expand. I usually let it thaw for 12-24 hours in the fridge before using.
As for snacks, those are luxuries, you can keep an eye on sales or just try making your own. It is a lot cheaper to make cookies from scratch and it can be a fun activity for you and the kids. Just grab a bag of generic chips and look up easy cookie recipes (or use the one on the bag).
Get your Sunday paper and check out flyers for sales coupons.
You can also get online coupons there is even a site that let's you load them onto your membership card.
I hope you won't take my advice about telling the kids they can't be too pick to heart. Would you rather your children go hungry? It is a tough life lesson but they need to learn to eat what is in front of them.
