How much do you spend at the grocery store?

[linderlizzie]

I work as a cashier in a high-end supermarket and I am absolutely astounded by how much people pay for their groceries. 

I get people who come through spending hundreds of dollars without batting an eye, and it just amazes me. I don't think I've ever in my life spent that much at one time on groceries.

We usually spend $80-100 a week, and thats with taking coupons and using mperks

Roughly $100.00 a week.

Wayyyy too much. Maybe like $150-$250 a month, depending on how crazy I went the month before haha

[teenangel]

I spend about $90 to $150 for the week

I used to spend $100-$150 a week at the store when I was working. I used to buy "in bulk"  if something was on sale.  For the past 7 years, I've been cutting back to bare bones. I am now down to $80-$100 a month if necessary! It hurts because I like to buy some "go-to" convenience meals when I don't feel like cooking. I also used to buy a lot of spices and fresh veggies for meals....like green onions, eggplant, spinach, etc. I no longer make deserts either.  I even gave up lettuce and other salad greens (once in a while we have a salad), and with the price of meat, no more steak or even beef roasts, no more seafood like shrimp or scallops, no more fish. We live on a lot of meals that uses a minimum of meat. A 2 lb. London Broil will give us 2 meals and 1 lb. hamburger for meals, no matter how much a recipe would call for.

I go to the supermarket on a weekly basis (generally on Saturdays) and I usually spend between $60 - $80 on groceries. Good grief! This is one of the reasons I missed living by myself.

For the 2 of us, I spend at least 300 per month. Since my guy moved in, my grocery bill has become much higher

[dsosnowski06]

I do large shopping once a month and go to several stores to stock up depending on the sale (especially meat) and spend about $300.00 a month. But every week I go for vegetables, fruit and milk and spend about $30.00.  So I guess we spend about $420.00 for a family of 4.  But we only eat out once a month and all 3 meals are made at home.

I go to the story at least 3 times a week and spend anywhere from $20-$40 each time.  I should plan better.

The most I've ever spent on groceries is between $75/80, its just me and my daughter.

I generally spend about $80-100 per week on groceries. I buy mostly fruits veggies yogurt and chicken. This time of year it tends to be  little higher because of the holidays and that I stock up now because when winter set in I have a hard time getting out to shop.

It depends on the store. We started calling Costco, "The Hundred Dollar Store" after we noticed the dollar total was always three figures. Other super markets that are closer, we don't buy as much at one time.

[Sendmicheck]

I spend about $150.00 for the small items. Bulk I purchased at Costco or BJ.

Spend about 140 a week for 3 people. Like to get that down. Buy some expensive foods like Steak salmon but not all the time.try
