What does your grocery list look like?

Question

What do you usually buy? Who is it for? How much do you spend? How often do you go? Do you buy the same things most of the time?

Answer

When we go shopping it’s $50-100 a week for me and my fiancé. We usually get the same items but toss some new stuff in every so often. We stick to the basics every trip of meat, fruits, veggies, milk, eggs, and cheese. Other than that before we go shopping we think of our dinners for the week and we buy ingredients for it. Also a few snacks and things to drink. Making our dinner list for the week honestly saved us money as we would just pick a whole bunch of stuff and majority of it would never match to make a proper dinner then have to keep going back out to get more stuff.

Answer

My SO is vegan and i are vegan so i buy a lot of veggies, nuts, fruits, spices, vegan substitutes, and occasionally starches like rice and potatoes. I also get items like cheese, nuggets, condiments, pepperoni, eggs, etc for my kids for their school lunches and meals for home. I spend +/- $180 a week for the 4 of us. I usually do get the same items but i meal plan everything including snacks so i know exactly what im cooking and how much i need so i dont over spend and so it doesnt rot.

Answer

I buy all of my meat and eggs from my friend’s farm. I get fresh meat from grass fed animals and cage free chickens. 
I buy a lot of healthy things. TONS of veggies and fruits at local farmer markets in my area. 
I buy for my son, my husband and myself. I typically spend $800 a month because I keep my kitchen and walk in pantry stocked 24/7. 
We have healthy snacks, we eat a lot of yogurt, we buy 4 -5 gallons of milk a week, I pack fresh, yummy things for my husband’s lunch and my lunch. Everyday we have something new like homemade hot soup, special meat sandwiches or wraps, etc. 
I also make everything homemade as well. I fix a healthy breakfast for everyone in the morning like eggs, bacon and pancakes, or French toast and pancakes, or breakfast casserole. 
I order my laundry supplies from Amazon and that’s about $100. I keep my laundry room fully stocked with different detergents and boosters. 
There are many things I buy that are consistent every month. I typically go once a week, every Saturday evening.

Answer

I buy a ton of produce and chicken. Then the normal eggs, cheese, milk, yogurt.  Plus foods for my son. 
On an average week I spend somewhere between $150-$200 
I don’t keep cookies and junk in the house because I have zero self control and will
binge eat.  
(Although I did buy a package of chocolate cookie dough with zero intentions of actually making cookies because I got my period again and was feeling sorry for myself)

Answer

We order our meat through butcher box and receive a shipment once a month. I shop for everything else weekly. I typically get a lot of produce, cheese, milk, eggs, salad fixings, yogurt or cottage cheese and then anything we need for our dinners for the week. We plan out our dinners before we go shopping and usually make a little extra so my husband can take leftovers for lunch. I usually buy household items once a month.
