Grocery Shopping.. How much do you spend?

Ok honestly we are a family of 6 4 kids and 2 adults. And we spend porbably 130 at the store a week. But I'm a bargin hunter and a huge coupon clipper.

Wow $100.00 a week im not sure I could do it. How many in your family? My next question is dose your husband go grocery shopping with you? because if he dosnt he could be in for sticker shock.I would make him do the shopping for a week so he could see how prices are.I shop a lot of like aldis which is a deep discount store anD some walmart,kroger depends on the sales. As far as coupons you said you dont get the paper,but you do have internet and there are so many places on the internet to get free coupons,ones you can print out. My husband was the manager of a grocery for years,so he knows what is a good buy and what isnt,so I never go grecying without him.

I usually spend less than $200 each month on groceries. That's for my husband, my 15 month old son, two dogs, a cat, and me. If you count toilet paper, paper towels, detergent, etc, it's probably a little bit more. Usually I go shopping twice a month, and spend around $85-90 each time. We still have to buy milk and bread in between, but that's usually it. My husband is military, so we can get a lot of our food really cheap at the commissary. i watch for sales, and don't go to grocery stores off base, unless they are having a good sale. We watch sales on base, too, when I'm actually there. We stock up on sale priced items. And I use A LOT of coupons. We get the paper for the coupons, plus I print a bunch of them out online. If you aren't already a member of mypoints.com, you should check them out. You get points for online shopping, reading mail, etc. They can be traded in for giftcards, and they have a lot of different choices. Anyway, they also give you points, if you use their link to coupons.com. So you get the free printable coupons, and points at the same time, so you get a really good deal.

If I had 100.00 a week for groceries I'd jump up and down and cheer. We spend between 30.00 and 35.00 a week on groceries. That includes our paper products and laundry stuff. We also spend around 70.00 a month at angelfood ministries. So we spend around 200.00 a month on groceries. There are three of us. We do our shopping at Aldie's discount store their prices are much cheaper than other places. We dont buy much junk at all. Just popcorn usually. Sodas are a treat if there is any money left after buying necessities. I shop with a calculator too.

things are so expensive, aren't they? yet there are just so many things to buy. i think whenever my mom and i shop at the grocery store, it would be above $100. the things that we need, along with other stuffs that we got attracted to while browsing thru the grocery store..ugh..i could use that $100 to buy a nice pair of shoes lol.. :P there are hypermarkets here but although it might seem a little bit cheaper than the normal supermarket, some of the items sold are not of good quality.

Have you considered crockpot or slow cooker recipes. You can make a big bunch of food (really good tasting too!) for under $20, and then freeze what's leftover for another day. I don't use the slow cooker nearly as much as I should. There are tons of free recipes online that I'm sure you and your spouse would enjoy.

We spend about $150/week on grocericies. We are a family of two kids and two adults. I also have four day care kids during the week. We also eat out a couple of times a week (not included in the figure I gave). If you have enough storage space you might considers shopping at Sam's or Costo if there is one nearby. If there were only two of us I think we could get by on $100/wk pretty easily.

I spend about 125.00 every 2 weeks.. but I shop on base and you can get lots for fairly good prices

Its just me and my daughter, and we spend about $50 to $75.00 weekly. We shop at Aldis, plus clip coupons for the regular grocery store.

Good grief, girl. I say feed the rest of the family and forget about letting your husband eat! That's the only way to spend just 100 dollars a week at the grocery store. Of course, I'm only sem-kidding. I spend about a 100 dollars a week, and it is just me and my two dogs. I swear their food costs more than mine! Not to mention puppy pads, and all that jazz. Do you have an Aldi's near you? They are the cheapest grocery store I know, but be sure to bring your own bags to put the groceries in. They have boxes sometimes, but other times they are out. And they don't have any plastic or paper bags to give you.

I forgot your original question LOL I spend about 75.00 a week for two people. But that doesnt include my toiletries and paper products :D I also love kroger... Man you gotta love those 10 for $10.00 specials!!

We spend about $200.00 a week for a family for 4 when my husband is home from offshore. When he's gone, we spend about $100.00 a week. I do most of my shopping at Kroger - yes, they are more expensive on many things, but their sales can't be beat. I'm also a Kroger member - and get coupons in the mail all the time for 20 bucks off and other coupons. Between their high quality meats (Wal Mart meat bites!) and the sales, coupons and everything, I come out way cheaper than going to other grocery stores. Clip those coupons woman!

there are five people in my family,and we spend $35 a week at the grocery store.in our country,the meat is cheap,$1.2 for o.5 kilogram.we like to eat vegetable,and the price of vegetable is cheaper than meat,so the food budget is about $5 a day in my family.what about your country?

I usually stick with a budget. When extra stuff is needed like toilet paper, laundry product the budget ties can be loosened a bit.
