Today was the big shopping day at our house, but I really did not feel up to it. My husband dropped my youngest son and I off downtown a little after 8 a.m., and we started out at Target.
I spent$1.48 on a pack with six granola bars. It was on sale, and I saved $1.52

At Publix I spent $72.65 and I saved $85.69
This means I spent a total of $78.86 this week
I saved a total of $100.54
At Publix I bought ALOT of cereal. I could not get the price below $1 per box, which I prefer, but I still got some great deals. I also bought lots of fruits and veggies, but as always we will go through these very quickly.

I buy for 3 people & 3 pets~
We spend $100 or so every 2 weeks for 3 people. No, we don't eat all t hat well for that money, either.

We spent $111 when we bought groceries last weekend. We won't be shopping again until around the 10th, other than for produce and milk. We'll probably spend about $50 between now and then on produce, though.
I would say on average, we go through about $75-100 in groceries every week. That's for our family of three, three dogs, and a cat. We also do lunches three times a week for the little girl that I babysit, and randomly we have other people (usually kids that I'm babysitting last minute) here for meals, too.
I am grocery shooping this Friday, I hope I get good deals like you did
