How much do you spend on food?

[Anonymous]

Per person per month? Please share. I need to know if I'm overspending or doing reasonably well. We're at about $250/person/month, including alcohol and paper good but excluding eating out, which is about another $100/person/month.

How many people?

Nobody is going to be able to break it down per person, OP. Because we don't buy one carton of milk for Larla, another for Aidan, etc. All four family members share the milk. Even that bitch Larla.

I just got back from Whole Foods and dropped $160 for a week for two adults and a 1 year old. I think this will get us to Friday. Good times.

A totally obscene amount

Pp here, we get fruits, veggies, and milk delivered, some stuff at WF, some at the regular grocery store.

We try to keep it under $750 a month for a family of three. We eat healthy and rarely eat out so that covers all our meals.

$550/month for 3 - me, DH, and 16 mo. DD. And that includes tons of diapers, paper goods, everything.

And we never eat out (23:36)

$700-800 mo on groceries, 2 adults 2 kids. This does not include alcohol or eating out/lunches at work (that's our weakness). We spent about $500-600/mo per-kids though, so at least for us, the per person calc wouldn't make sense.

I avg about $200/ week for a family of 4 (me, DH, 5 and 3 yo). We don't eat out much, maybe once a month? And it's mostly organic, though not all.

I spend about $1300 per month - easy. I buy all kinds of shit we don't need. My husband has this thing about left overs. He rarely eats them and wants something new everyday so we waste an insane amount. We also buy expensive stuff like Perrier and Pelligrino. It really adds up.
