[quote=Anonymous]How much do you spend at the grocery store? Our grocery bills are out of control. I tried shopping more frequently, buying what we might need for that day and the next, and that was even worse. So I went back to doing a big shop on the weekend, but it still seems like we're supplementing too much. Also, and here is my vent. I take the time to plan out meals and shop on the weekend, yet it seems that my DH and/or nanny seem to find something every day that we are missing, and then go out and spend an extra $20 a day. Honestly, my kids don't need a choice of goldfish and crackers and pretzels, and we don't have room to store all that stuff. Anyway sorry for the vent...what is reasonable for a family of four to spend? We eat almost all meals at home (DH and I pack our lunches). Pack lunch for older kid. How do you keep costs down?[/quote]
