how much????
« on: Jul 22, 2009, 09:30:15 PM »
how much do you spend on grocery's

i just went shopping for the weekend trying my hardest not to spend too much.
i spent $150 for just me for a thursday night to sunday trip. and thats the best i've done.
now i will say that a big chunk of that is on liquer and beer, so if i didnt drink it would be a whole different story.


so how about you guys

I think if we only drank beer for our alcohol of choice, we can get by on $100 for a weekend - not counting all the ice. However, Memorial weekend was a whole 'nother story :outtahere:

I think $100 is about average for us, mabye $150 depending on the booze.

Not much if I'm heading out for a weekend/few day trip.  Don't have a total, maybe $10 for sandwich stuff, $5 on fruit if available, $5 on chips/snacks, $8 on a couple bags of jerky and $5 on gatorade or other drinks.  So $35ish  :dunno:

At home it can be much lower, especially since I'm unemployed and haven't been approved for unemployment yet.  I figure I should be able to make it on $50 a month.  Sodas and flavored drinks aren't necessary, but I did buy several quarts of gatorade right before getting fired, and raley's had a deal for the 4th where you buy 2 12 packs of coke products for $6 each and get 4 free, and with rationing I still have almost 4 12 packs left.
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
