You should probably ask how often the person goes. I buy for just me and I go daily to get food for dinner and fruit for the next mornings breakfast and my average is $12.

Married with two kids. I'm around $250 per week. I am almost religiously fanatic in my use of Fresh Direct, an online grocery delivery company. That probably adds almost $10 to my weekly bill (which is factored into the $250). I cannot stand going to the grocery store.

I'm also starting to experiment with Amazon Fresh, which is a similar service.

Buy everything we can at Fresh Produce Market, then Trader Joe's, then Walmart to fill in the last gaps.

i'm all over the place. i typically go to krogers about 4-5 times a week. it's like a 2 minute drive to my house

kale and broccoli need to be replaced every 2 days or so if i'm eating what i'm supposed to. my protein usually lasts 3-5 days

i also pick up rotisserie chicken or random lunches/dinners. i almost never eat out and i haven't done fast food in probably over a year. i use krogers for that

I go off an on, sometimes it'll be like 4 days in a row, sometimes not for a week at a time. But I typically spend around $350-$400 a month at the grocery store.
