how much do you spend a week on groceries? for those of you who don't have a kitchen or something, how much do yo spend on food in general?



i know a dude who stopped eating out, and he saved 80 bucks a week by cutting just that out. that's insane to me to spend 80 bucks a week on fast food/restaurants. i spend about 80 dollars a week on groceries for two people, which i think is pretty good.

lol i refuse to eat out. i spend about $40 every two weeks on groceries, ><.

i eat out more on the weekends. i cook pretty much every day of the week most times though.

that's like 20 bucks per week, that's cheap ohmy.gif

lol too poor at the moment. for grocery shopping, i usually go in the store wanting one thing, but end up coming out with five things. ramen4lifetho. going out with friends can cause major damage to my bank account because the only thing that everybody can ever agree on is food.

Food expenditure for one week: 685 CFA Francs or $1.23

the germany one made me giggle

Food expenditure for one week: 375.39 Euros or $500.07
Favorite foods: fried potatoes with onions, bacon and herring, fried noodles with eggs and cheese, pizza, vanilla pudding

^ One family's fav. food is pig knuckles....

My brother will sometimes go out to eat for breakfast AND for lunch. I have no idea where he gets the money, unless if he makes his friends pay for him, too.

I spent probably $200 tops on food a month. But I cook a lot for other people, so idk what I spent just on myself.

When I was living by myself -- or grocery shopping for myself, rather -- I think it less than $40/week for the most part, but I rarely made breakfast (I bought scones and cereal occasionally) so it was probably more than that.

Oh god. I spend a little over 100/week. Sometimes more if I'm making something special.

We usually cook at home instead of eating out, and yes, that saves a lot of money. Unfortunately, I don't do a very good job of keeping track of grocery bills, but I know that ours usually hover at around $30 a week. This is because we eat a lot of veggies and other whole foods instead of getting processed foods.

I spend $90.00 every two and a half weeks. But it helps not to eat out. And it's just me by myself.
