I've posted this on here before. My wife and I follow a strict grocery budget. She makes a menu that extends 4-5 weeks. We shop bulk items at Costco/Sam's and buy the rest at Wal-Mart. We buy produce weekly. We can do all of the Costco/Sam's & Wal-Mart for around $400. The weekly produce is always around $15-$20.
We also budget one big date night per month. Usually in the $200-$250'ish range. I like to go big on date night.

Yeah we make 2-3 big trips to Sam's or Costco every year, but we do all of our other shopping at Publix. Walmart is generally cheaper, but their produce and meat is vastly inferior to what I can get at Publix so I'm willing to pay extra.
