Re: How Much Do You...

I;d say about $300 a month on groceries ( we buy almost all organic so that might make it higher) and about $200 per montj on eating out.

Re: How Much Do You...

We are major foodies so this is hard. I'd say 200-400 depending on what's going on that month.

Re: How Much Do You...

I'd say on average...$70/week.

Sometimes more or less, depending on what we need, household items, etc.

Re: How Much Do You...

I would say we spend $75-120 a week at the supermarket and I do buy what's on sale, especially meat and stuff. We also eat lunch at home just about everyday that includes that too (and lean cuisines, etc).

But we also do a big BJ's shop every 2 months and stock up on frozen fish, etc.

We have not done that on like 3 or so months and our fridge broke a couple weeks ago and we have to throw out so much... I dread the bill tomorrow night when we go! UGH!

ETA: by the way, i cook most nights or we have leftovers. we rarely eat out/order out. Maybe pizza once a month, chinese once a month if that. I don't even think we do take out once a week. We go out for dinner only for special things or with friends occasionally. we find it less expensive to cook and i love cooking... and its healthier than eating out all the time!

Re: How Much Do You...

we spend about 80 per week. I just had this convo yesterday with Fh though, i feel like i buy so much crap because it's on sale and then never use it. So, i went through the freezer, fridge and cupboards and made a list of dinners we can make before going shopping again! I swear, I am at the grocery store 3 times a week
