More Affordable/Creatine Enabled Diet.

I'm going to be starting a bulk for the next 6 weeks in about 2 weeks after I complete my finally 4 cutting workouts and a week of rest (Ugh). Anyways, I found a pretty solid workout that'd I'd like to try as a bulk, I'm a bit ashamed to say it's from a magazine, but I believe it can help me significantly. The diet is a bit extreme/unaffordable and I'll like to be able to add creatine into the mix.

Here's the original diet:
Pre-Breakfast (30-60m Prior)
1 Scoop Whey Protein
1/2 Cantaloupe

Breakfast:
3 Eggs
3 Egg Whites
1tbsp Olive Oil
1slice Low-Fat Cheese
2 Cups Oatmeal

Late-Morning Snack:
1C Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1C Pineapple
1 Clif Bar

Lunch:
1 Can Tuna
2s Whole-Wheat Bread
1tbsp Light Mayo
1 Fruit

Afternoon Snack:
1tbsp Peanut Butter
1tbsp Jam
2s Whole-Wheat bread
1s Whey Protein

Dinner:
8 oz. Salmon
1C Broccoli
2C Green Salad
2tbsp Olive Oil/Vinegar Dressing

Nighttime Snack:
1S Casein Protein
1tbsp Peanut Butter

Pre-Workout:
1s Whey Protein
1 Apple

Post-Workout:
2s Whey Protein
1/2C Low-Fat Milk
30 Gummy Bears.

I'm going to eliminiate the Clif Bar, I don't think it'll do much. The problem is the salmon pretty much. It's extremely expensive.

I'd still like to hit about 3100-3500 calories, and keep the protein (265g), fat (110g) and carb (260g) levels relatively the same just to keep the same base of the workout and diet plan. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to incorporate creatine monohydrate and cut down the cost ? It's okay if there's some large expenses in there. I'm just not down with a massive grocery bill at 17 years old. Not my forte. Thanks.

[Memo]

you can buy frozen salmon at Walmart 5$ for a pound, and whats up with the candy post workout? Is it a cutting diet? I would loose weight on this, there is not enough meat. You should have at least a meal with 6oz of red meat and 2 meal with 6oz of chicken. All you get all day is protein powder.

I'm going to have a more in-depth look at this when I'm out of school and add in chicken, ground beef. etc. I planned on completely redoing it while maintaining the proper gram count so we'll see how well I can do this !
