You can buy gluten free flour in supermarkets to make your own cakes, biscuits, pastry and bread. Yes, the flour is not cheap (Doves Farm brand around £1.70 a kg) but it works out cheaper than buying ready made GF bread and cakes. GF flour takes a little practice to get results but Doves Farm brand flours have recipes on the back of the bags.
If gluten is the problem you might not be able to tolerate oats or things like cornflakes, but you just have to read labels and experiment. And there are plenty of breakfast ideas that don't contain wheat or gluten. Think bacon and eggs, yoghurt, fruit, pancakes made with GF flour.

Have you tried shopping from Approved Foods? They sometimes have cut price GF things.

But it is much easier and nicer to make your own soup Sunflower.

We all love HM mushroom soup
Parsnip and apple soup with a little cumin
Miserstrone soup so called in this house because I make it using cheap frozen veg, a tin of tomatoes,1 ltr of HM vegetable stock , some broken up cheapo spaghetti, a clove of garlic (or a dash of garlic granules if I haven't any fresh)
HM cream of vegetable soup again using frozen mixed veg
HM leek and potato soup
HM celery soup
Broad bean and l/o gammon soup
Parsnip and chestnut soup.

Buy a copy of the covent garden soup book or their 365 days of soup recipes. Well worth every penny

I agree, BB, but when you have no money, free food tastes better than going hungry
