Whats your grocery shopping bill for a week?

Question

I feel I spend a fortune on food every week we do eat fairly healthy with lots of fruit and Veg and meat. I have a family of 4 Me my Hubby a teenager and a 13month old and our dog I cook at least 6 nights a week and also make lunches. so far for the month I have spent $574.00 and there is still 2 weeks left in the month this doesnt include alcohol lol. My cupbards and fridge are well stocked we dont go without though. I just want to know how I compare.

Answer 1

Well, it's just me, the old lady, and a very ugly old dog. We don't drink alcohol. BUT we do eat "high on the hog."

We average about $100 a week. Last week it was $192!

Answer 2

There is me, my husband, 10 year old and a 5 year old, plus 2 nights out of the week I have my 6 year old niece and her Dad for supper. Then there is 1 dog and 2 cats. I spend $150 a week on groceries. Since I am a stay at home Mom I prepare almost all our meals from scratch and we only eat out about once every 6 weeks. I also have a nice garden. We are already eating spinach and lettuce out of it...that helps on the bill. I also put up all our salsa, green beans, corn and okra. Plus, when I shop I shop the sales and use coupons to my best advantage.
Peace.

Answer 3

Here in southeast Missouri, I spend about $90 a week for two adults. My husband's work means that he gets home at odd hours, so I keep a lot of quick and easy suppers such as Stouffer's Skillet Meals in the freezer for him. I also try to keep a good supply of healthy sandwich materials in case he comes in starved, so that makes my grocery bill a little higher than it might otherwise be.

So for a family of four -- especially one that includes a teenager -- you're still doing pretty good.
