At the grocery store I have been spending on average $50 a week, we also buy a lot at Costco (juice, eggs, diapers, pull-ups, paper towels, etc.), we probably spend about $100 average per week there.  (Family of 4.)

Right now I'm spending about $100/week for the 4 of us, including diapers/household/etc. It should go down to $75 or so once I get stocked up again.

I budget $50 a week and usually come in very very close to it.

Is that $25 per person or $25 total?

Our budget is usually around $75-$100 a week for a family of four.  Sometimes it can be more if I'm buying meat and cleaning supplies.  I try really hard though to keep it around $100 max. for the week.

We used to be at $50 or less for 5 people a week when we lived in the lower 48 but now that we are in Alaska it breaks down to $100 to $125 a week. This is with shopping sales and using coupons. I'm looking at other ways to try and get it down to $75 or less per week.

We probably spend about $75/week for a family of four.  It really varies though. 


Shell, I noticed your ALDI cart!  That's a great place to extend your grocery budget.  It's amazing what you can get for $50 there.
