i buy for 3. Myself and 2 teenagers. I budget $100 per week-this incudes all cleaning, paper and miscellaneous products.

some weeks i spend less and just keep it in the “grocery” envelope.

we all carry our lunches and snacks and we eat all organic foods.

i am in tn.

I’m still trying to set up a more definite budget and would like some
examples to compare my grocery spending to. For those of you with a
budget already in place, what dollar amount do you allot for groceries
on a weekly/monthly basis, and how many people are included.Thanks to
all for the input!
