How much do you spend each week on groceries?

We spend about $300/week. But we also have five kids and live in a very expensive area.

I try to plan our meals for 1 week. Depending if I get meat in bulk and toiletries, I spend anywhere from 80-150 dollars for my boyfriend and I. I also cook large meals and freeze them for future meals, so there are weeks where I hardly spend anything except for fruits and veggies.

Mine averages out to $50/ week. Usually one $150ish trip and one $50 trip per month. Just me and the boyfriend, mostly fresh foods and some packaged snack foods. Happy to live in an affordable area!

About $200 (that's a rough budget); feeding myself, my husband, our four year old son, two roommates (one of whom is lactose intolerant, the other works weird shifts so needs 'grab and go' food), packed lunch for hubby and eating out once every two weeks (er, ordering in, but whatever). Plus two cats and a dog.

Heck, in that light, that ain't bad, lol!

In my budget I allot $75 a week to food. Some weeks it's more and some weeks it's less (when I buy meat it's more - but I only buy it when it's on sale so I can freeze it). I don't even eat meat everyday so I don't understand how some of you get by on less! I guess it depends on where you live.
I could probably spend less if I ate more potatoes and pasta and other cheap foods but I stick to fresh produce and lean meats mostly.

So, I'm in a particularly expensive part of Canada on an Island so things are ridiculous here, but it costs me and my husband (both mostly paleo, clean eating types) about $200 a week. He eats an insane volume though, so my bill would probably be around 60-80 on my own.

Geez, where do you all shop? I have a spouse & 2 children (ages 8 & 14) and I spend at LEAST $200 per week; I'm not a coupon user.... We eat out about 2-4 meals per month and my kids typically do not bring lunch to school (my husband & I do bring lunch to work). I'm certainly not shopping the most expensive store in town.... Our kids eat what we eat. I think I need to get some pointers from some of you!

I could easily do that but we are on a tight budget. I shop at Costco, Safeway, and Fresh & Easy. I utilize their sales, club sales, online club coupons, printable coupons, and mailer coupons to get the most bang for my buck. I haven't gotten into using manufacture coupons mostly because I don't have the time and don't buy a lot of name brand processed foods.

Oh, I forgot I also shop at Sprouts for inexpensive produce. We also don't eat much meat. I buy a big thing of skinless chicken breasts at Costco a few times a year, and salmon if I can find it on sale.

wow some people have generous budgets. I aim for £100-150 per month on main weekly shops then a bit more for things we are running out of. I haven't the money to be 100% healthy but I aim to get better over time.

Usually we hit the grocery store a couple times a month and average anywhere between $200 - $400. HOWEVER, this month we've gone once and won't have to go again for at least another month, probably more - and we dropped A TON of money!!!!

First we hit the Berkeley Bowl and got a grocery cart full of fresh veggies and fruits, along with some fish and deli meats. That was almost $300. Then the next day we went to our local grocery store and stocked up on other meats (chicken, turkey, etc.) to store in our freezer and whatever else we needed and spent another $600!!!

This is mainly because everybody likes different things -- what I snack on (edamame, spinach, edamame crackers, virgin olive oil popcorn, Kashi, etc.) - nobody else does.

My son eats Oreos, lots of frozen pizzas, and drinks lots of soda. Neither I nor my husband do.

My husband likes veggies that nobody else eats.

My husband is a professional chef and has very high standards when it comes to food - that's not to say we can't find something good at a cheap market, but he's always willing to pay more if the organic stuff looks better than the regular stuff, or if the higher-end brand really IS better than the cheaper brand, or for "better" cuts of meat. As long as we can afford it, I don't mind.

I spend about $120-$175 per week on groceries for myself.

Around $200 for me and my man. (Includes our weekly takeout night)

Hey! This thread has helped me a lot!

I started living alone very recently and I'm feeling tired and hungry all the time, and even a little bit dizzy.
And I came to the conclusion that I'm not eating enough.

Now I see that the average is between $80 and $120 per week for a single person,
maybe more if you purchase everything organic...
but I'm spending way too less than that and of course I'm feeling not too well.

I usually spend around 30 € per week (that's around $40)
and get some extra meals at fast food restaurants, but that is also not good.
*I think I'm going to spend more time and money at the supermarket.*

Thanks to you all!

Shizzle! I read through all this food jargon and damn.. eating clean is expensive as fuark! Recently, I've been hammering down about 120 bucks a week and that's just for me. But now I'm cutting, things will be a bit more cheap. Probs back to 60-80 bucks.

I figure I can make it on about $50 a week. Something I never did before I started my diet was realize how much money I was spending on lunch at work or the convenient trips to McDonalds or Wendy's on my way home. Now that I prepare most of my food I am saving the same amount it takes to feed me that week. $200 savings a month!!!
