| Sun, 06-03-2007 - 10:46am |
We are a family of 5 and we have 2 boys and a girl,ages 3,7 and 11.Lately it seems impossible to keep the cupboard stocked enough to keep them full!We have big lunches,and definetely huge suppers and they still eat me out of house and home!Last month I kept track of all my grocery bills and I came in at just over $1200 cad!I was just wondering what you gals spend on groceries and does anyone have the same pro?Thanks in advance.

Wow! Well, reading these posts certainly gives me a better idea on what I will be spending in the future. My DH and I were just discussing that we need to set up a budget, and reading all these gives me a better idea. Since my son is only 12 months, I'm hoping I'll be able to keep it down to $400 - $500 a month. My DH and I love pasta so I guess we'll be eating a lot of that and not too much meat. I try to get organic, but sometimes I just can't afford that extra expense. Oh well.
Thanks!

We are a family of 5, my dh and I then our children are my son is 9 1/2, my twin girls are 7. i spen about $600-$700 a month of all groceries. That is everything. Lately I have noticed an incread in appetite in one of my girls. I think she is growing. I keep a lot of fresh fruit and they gobble that up. Our lunches aren't big, sometimes our dinners aren't. I do go all out for dinner when I can. We are in softball season right now so quick meals is our thing right now.

LOL!
I like your quote, how true!
We might, and that is a big might, eat out once a week. Some months just twice in that month. We just can't afford it. I don't budget in going out for meals at all. It's more of a spur of the moment, hardly planned in advance, and if we have the money.
