How much do you spend Food Shopping each week?

Ok I figured I would make this a sep. post.

We are spending about $75.00 each week at the grocery - which includes stuff for most of our lunches. How does that stack up with everyone else?

I spend about a 100 a week for 3 of us but thats not lunches, we all still buy those too..
I could probably scale down a little. I tend to just 'throw' things in my wagon that I probably dont need

We spend about $55-65 a week..that is for lunches everyday and dinner for about 5 nights (rest of the time we eat out).

It depends on the week. If I am low on cleaning products then that really adds to the bill. If I am hosting a dinner party or cooking for a family's party (such as Easter) that also adds up quickly. But normally I spend between $75-$100, including most lunches. If I pre-plan what I am making and bring a list with me that really helps keep costs down. And I use coupons almost every time.

we spend about $90-100 every other week, so $45-50/week. For the most part - that does not include DH's lunches. Though sometimes it does since he brings a lot of leftovers. Includes mine though, since I'm home.

It is amazing how quickly the cost fo food adds up! We spend about $65-$70 a week for the 2 of us, this includes breakfast, lunch and dinner for 5-6 days a week. Before I was obsesed with coupons, the bill was closer to $80-$90!

We spend about $75 - $80 a week. That includes all breakfasts, dinners and most lunches (leftovers).
Of course summer bbq's and holidays bring that price way up!

ok so we're not really out of line. I thought DH was was way overboard. For some reason I thought we were way out of line. Thanks ladies. But Im still going to get him to use coupons!!

$50-$60 not including his lunch. He buys that daily and we usually eat out once or twice a week.

WOW! I'm spending on the average $130-$150 a week and that's with coupons and the stop and shop card! What are we doing wrong?

Probably 50 a week. He works till 1am during the week so I don't make big meals for myself during that time.

I shop every two weeks. I loathe food shopping and hubby would eat take-out every night before he would step foot in a supermarket. So I do a big load every other Saturday. i spend about $160-$180 for a total of $340 a month. About $85 a week. But we eat out or oder take-out once a week. We also spend more than $200 a month at Costco.

About $50 for the both of us. Not too bad...

I easily spend $100 a week, not including the $400 I spend at Costco/BJs each month or the butcher. (We always have guests, so I try and make sure we're stocked up on everything.)

Hell, I run in to get a 'few items' and I end up spending 80 bucks.
