Comments on: How Much is Your Grocery Bill? http://acowboyswife.com/2007/10/17/how-much-is-your-grocery-bill/ Tue, 18 Nov 2008 22:35:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Chuck Foxtrot http://acowboyswife.com/2007/10/17/how-much-is-your-grocery-bill/#comment-725 Chuck Foxtrot Thu, 18 Oct 2007 15:42:00 +0000 http://acowboyswife.com/2007/10/17/how-much-is-your-grocery-bill/#comment-725 We spend about $260 a month, and that is up a good bit since my son was born. We buy a lot of moderately expensive foods specifically for him that we would not otherwise have in the house -- cottage cheese, Cheerios, Kix, string cheese, Yo-Baby yogurt, organic milk, etc...<br/><br/>I'm sure it will go up as he gets older and will eat double what my wife and I eat combined. Plus, we don't eat much red meat now, but that may change as he starts to develop his own tastes and preferences. That'll drive the bill up even more...

I’m sure it will go up as he gets older and will eat double what my wife and I eat combined. Plus, we don’t eat much red meat now, but that may change as he starts to develop his own tastes and preferences. That’ll drive the bill up even more…

I probally spend about $150 a week. It is mainly because we have to keep going back for fresh produce. That doesn't include shopping at the little ethnic markets around here. <br/><br/>I have gotten a little bit better. I am trying to limit myself to 2 trips a week and that is it.

I don't go back until I am almost out of food though. That was until Stan started living here and than...I go more frequently because he goes nuts without bananas.<br/><br/>I sometimes take my school bus to the grocery store, so the problem with that is your food rolls all over the floor unless you tie the bags to seat legs. LOL...<br/><br/>Have a great day. I spend a ton like that all at one time. I don’t go back until I am almost out of food though.
