Me, my boyfriend, and my 2 dogs spent about $550-$600 amonth in groceries. Now, we don't spend that much, because we have a decrease in income. Now we spend about $200, or maybe even less.

We spend about $150 a month for groceries & necessities (soaps, shampoos, diapers, etc) for 2 adults and one child. Weve also done Angel Food in the past...it's a good way to save!

I think we spend about that. I just went today and picked up about $100 worth of stuff, but we just went last week and got $80. And then of course we always end up going in between to pick up stuff we need. It is crazy. We are a family of 6. The baby is on formula and just started eating baby food--so that is expensive.

I'd be interested in knowing how much a person spends only for themselves. So if their is anyone who buys groceries only for themselves I'd be interested to know how much they are spending. Very soon I will have to be doing this and I'm trying to work out my budget.

I will spend anywhere from 250 to 350 a month on groceries for a family of 5. We also have a dog and cat, bird and rabbit. One day I want to see if we can get below the 250.
