HOW MUCH DO YOU SPEND ON GROCERIES PER WEEK & MONTH?

Do you have a garden to help ?
And are you single ?

how do you do that ?
prices on food have gone way up

I wrote 2 people

No garden

I live in the United States

Sales and coupons.

We only eat a small breakfast of bananas or broccoli or some fruit or veggie for breakfast with coffee.

Lunch is usually the biggest and nice. Today apple pie.

Dinner is often eggs with some fruit or veggie

4 people

$140.00 - $200.00 per week.

If I ate alot of grains I could even make it cheaper.

Rice makes eating very cheap but grains are nasty for your body due to peptides amongst many other things!

At least $100/ week minimum.

2adults 1 child.

There isn't any way we could do $28 a week.

Are you Mopar not signed in. Is this an Aldi ad?

$200.00 per week for 2 people

we eat like kings

buy only top of the line groceries at the deluxe food markets

are you blind ?????????

he said : 2 people !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It varies a lot. But if we are just including food products, no tp, soap etc., I would have to say 100.00 per week for two people.

No.

It's easy to do.

It will get cheaper once the mangos come out in full.

People are too lazy to look for deals but they're there.

Eggs are a good cheap meal. One carton here around $1.

Same here

At least 800 per mo for 3 people. We like fresh fruit and veggies.

Punkass, what's the deal with your sig?

oh nm lol

My wife and I spend 60 dollars every two weeks plus about 10 dollars/week buying fresh bread.

I guess it's all relative.

Some people on here pay $6/gallon of milk while I pay only $1.89. Some people are brand conscious while I don't give a fuck.

Basically your all spending way too much.

I could spend $5dollars for a box of brand name cereal or I could go to Aldi or Trader Joes and buy a box for 1.69-3.00 for something that has more nutrition.

I don't eat beef. But I can go to Sams Club and get boneless chicken breast for 1.79/lb.

Luckily I have 7 grocery stores and a Sams Club within walking distance.

OOPS it should read.

My wife and I spend 60 dollars every two weeks plus about 10 dollars/week buying fresh bread and vegetables.

That's close to us!

My wife is one of those crazy coupon ladies. It is not uncommon for her to go the the register with a rounded over shopping cart and have the bill be over $300 before coupons and then once they are all applied, the bill comes to $5 - $10

Our total spent on "groceries" is less than $20 per week for a family of 4.

WOWZA!!!

Im at about 90 a week for 1 person

myself...$30 a week

got garden?

I spend about 150 per week for a family of four and three pets.

This also includes all paper products, cleaning products, health and beauty, laundry and cigs. No alchohol except the occasional six pack of beer.

I buy off brand as much as I can and we aren't much into processed stuff. Lots of fruits and veggies too.

sorry for double post

We don't budget for food, but normally spend about $150 per week for 4 people. But that included TP, laundry detergent and cleaning supplies, cat food, dog food, beer, wine, etc. The kicker is, we don't have to buy meat because of a family business. So, we kind of live like kings, too. LOL

$200 per week because healthy foods and fruit and veg cost more than junk food.

I spend $250-300/mo for 2 adults and one child. That includes all hygiene products, paper, etc.

I usually do one big shop after payday (we both get paid once a month)and menu plan, then fill in bread, milk, produce. My daughter is a speed skater so she has to eat well.

about $350 to $400 per month, one person.

I eat a lot of fresh vegetables and fruit, always organic, which costs a lot. I also get these absolutely incredible locally grown, fresh eggs at the farmers market. Best eggs ever. But they are $3.50 per dozen

I also eat out regularly at three restaurants, one is Thai, one is Jamaican, and the other is West African. Absolutely fantastic food. But of course it's kind of expensive to eat out regularly.

I used to buy organic when I could afford it but then I realized how do I know it's organic?

Really the only food I would consider organic would be from a local farmer who doesn't use pesticides etc.

I always laughed at this woman I know who is poor and spends money at whole foods. I said to her maybe none of the food is organic at whole foods.

Nice scam to label organic yet use regular food though. Haha
