    Coupons and comparison shop... Walmart and Target isn't always the cheapest for things... a lot of times our Safeway store or Kroger or even Albertson's is... If you have a Sprouts or an Aldi's check that out as well.

    We average $400 a month for two people as well. In the summer, I do try to support local produce stands and buy as much that was as possible. We also have a garden and can or freeze as much as we can from there..

    Definitely try using coupons where you can. Sometimes the name brand comes out cheaper than the crummy store brands if you have coupons...(and tastes a lot better).

    Spent about $400 this month on two people last moth. Not sure of exact amount since I went by my debit deductions to Walmart and Target and some of that includes toiletries and stuff, but it's in that ballpark.

    That's really not to bad when you break it down. That comes out to $13 - $14 per day...divide that by 2 people, you're talking about feeding yourselves on $6.50 - $7.00 per day. I need a shopping lesson from you.
