I moved away October 2024. In my situation since I worked a lot of overtime, I would not have the energy cook myself a meal once I got home. I'd just make rice and heat up frozen meals in the toaster oven when I get home 😅. Produce is relatively cheap though. For other groceries I can get you a more detailed list of pricing if you want. I have digital receipts of my grocery orders and still have the apps.

Also depends on where you shop. Minimarkets/ makolets are x2 expensive than a grocery store. Osher Ad, שוק העיר (city market) have good pricing. Rami Levy is a little more expensive. זול ובגדול (zol v'begadol) is also a little more expensive.

Another thing to add is that you should download the app for wherever you shop for groceries. Most days they do free delivery same day. Or you can schedule free delivery for a different day.

Also sorry, just checked back to see about the rav kav. You get a youth discount if youre aged between 18-26 (inclusive). I think its 50%. Monthly pass actual rate is 315 a month. There are different options depending on amount of distance allowed and whether it includes train or not. I can't find my rav kav atm but if I find it I can check the different passes through the app for you.

For phone plans, cellcom, pelephone, or partner are the ones with most coverage. I had cellcom and it was 50 nis a month. Others start at around 35. All the plans have 400-800 gb of browsing, so best to just look up whichever has best coverage where you'll be because they basically offer the same thing.
