We’re a family of four and pretty consistently spend $1200/month on groceries alone. Probably another $250/month eating out.

We eat well but nothing extravagant by any means.

It has dropped a lot since LSU started back up.

Prices are averaging about $40 per meal (dinner) for a family of 4.

Trying to get what I can at Costco. Proteins and fruits tend to be good buys there for both price and quality.

Triple dipping - the husband pays the bulk of it

All Walmarts in my area have been relabeling their shelves. Everything is 20-30% more.

Up to about 1200 per month +/- 100

Family of 3 but I’m including more than just strictly food.

If I limited it to strictly food probably more like 900ish.

6 people total.

My wife and I, plus 4 kids 15 years old to 9.

$1000-$1200 at Sam's club every month plus $100-200 a month at our local grocery store.

Sam's used to be about $800 a month max.

My wife has calmed down a bit on the local grocery store purchases, but it's still about $3-400 a month, now.


Coke 6 packs alone are double. $1 vegetable oil spray is now $2.

The local Mexican restaurant adds 20% when not using cash because of "inflation". They have a disclaimer hand written on the inside of their menu.

Household of 5. Limited to $150 a week. We eat lots of stews. No out to eat. In all fairness I was laid off at the end of June so been pinching pennies.
