It's amazing to see some of the different amounts here!
I know we have been spending too much. I think our food bill went up around $100 since my brother moved in, so probably for us (my husband and I) we spend about $650 a month, which is still very high. We were eating out too much, buying too many prepared foods, expensive organic produce, and stopping too much on the way home from work for items.
We are now going to go shopping once a week with a list, and just eat what we have! I'll let you know how that turns out! :D

I must say I spend way too much money at the grocery :o I went today and only got what was on my list and still spent $90!
-
Were you feeding your brother? Guys eat way more than most women. :p
My grocery bill is about 100.00 per week, but it's not all food. I spend
very little on just myself. The dog & cat food (and the pet extras) is the
most expensive.

I shop once a month, and its roughly 750 for human food and a bit over 200 for the critters, I sopend less than my morgatge if that counts ! lol :p
-
How can you shop once a month? What about milk, fresh fruit and fresh produce? I am at the store every other day just about....

I shop at different places but do get most of my non-perishables at Walmart. You just can't beat their prices on that stuff. I usually spend about $100/week for hubby and myself and so that averages out to about $400/month. I spend about $100/month on the furkids' food, so I guess my total is just about $500/month to keep all six of us all alive and kicking. :) We eat out or get take-outs about once a week but I haven't added that in to my total.

I buy ultra heat treated long life milk, lasts for at least nine months unopened then the usual week in the fridge.
-
maybe $300-$400 including dog and critter food. thats combined for me my mom, 6 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, 1 rabbit, 6 gerbils, 1 snake, 1 bird.. we could never afford some of the amounts I am seeing here.

Hmm i am still amongst one of the highest spenders on grocery items it appears, i say good on you if you can eat well,and healthy for less, well done, you know we live on one income and it is not considered a high income at all, we do have a low mortgage though,well by NZ standards at only 354 dollars a month, so that helps heaps.
