I was spending $50 on Moe's a week until I moved and now split bills with gf so it's not too bad. Try to drink as many protein rtd's I get marked down at GNC as possible so all I have to pay for is dinner
Same here. I would say about $300 a week, but that's for me the wife and my daughter's, five and seven. Most of it probably goes towards feeding me as they don't eat very much. That also includes buying enough to bring leftovers for lunch. Much healthier and save money vs. Buying lunch out everyday.
I spend about 150 for me and 3 kids but I also have a freezer stocked with grass fed beef and farm chickens. I buy in bulk from a farmer I know.. 3 dollars a pound beef and 1 per pound chicken
I bought tons of stuff at costco the other day, spent 238 for ~ 2 week period. Like 30-40 bucks of it was for non-food related items. This covers the wife and I for almost 2 weeks. On food, as long as we don't eat out I can spend around 400 a month. If we eat out once a week or something it nears 5-550 a month

the expensive stuff is the stuff I don't really need but it is nice to have a SF candy bar once and a while and diet drinks now and then.
Thanks guys for sharing... I guess is all about shopping smart and knowing your needs... I just found a wholesale place that sells chicken and eggs to restaurants... I just cut my chicken bill by $2.24 per pound :headbang:
"For the challenge, I loosely based my grocery list on the off-season diet I was using prior to turning pro. And with $50, I was easily able to buy the whole food that I would typically consume for a week."
