[quote=Anonymous]For my family, the amount we spend really depends.  We eat mostly organic foods but we are not strict.  We buy organic milk, eggs, chicken breast, ground beef and some yogurt at Costco.  We don't buy them but I know Costco sells the Horizon milk boxes.  We also buy frozen wild salmon in bags at Costco.  Buying some staples at Costco can save a lot and you can freeze meat so the large quantities are ok.  We buy most of our produce at Whole Foods but not all of their produce is actually organic so you have to look at the signs.  I always look for the least expensive organic apples and I buy those.  I buy big bags of organic carrots (whole) when on sale and keep them.  I buy bags of organic potatoes.  I look for sales and specials.  We always try to get the "case" discount (6 bottles of wine, 6 4-packs of yogurt, 12 regular yogurts, etc.).  It is expensive.  We also keep a garden in our yard and try to hit the farmer's markets when we can--ours start in May.  I think Giant's organic selections are weak.  We have a walmart nearby and they have more organics than my local giant.  They sell organic milk but I have not tried it yet.  Also, if the overall price is too high, you could focus on only buying the 
"dirty dozen" veggies/fruit in organics and then go with conventional for the other stuff.   [/quote]
