OT-grocery budget?

[surgtech1956]

For two of us, we spend about $300 a month - the only meat we buy is maybe lunch meat about twice a month. We cut down eating out from once a week to once or twice a month. I don't even want to figure our cat and dog food bill.

I didn't include the wine or beer in my estimate. We usually go a couple of times a year and buy a lot.
We got out a lot, too.

I tried to come up with an exact but can only esimate how much it might cost for buying groceries for 2 in our household. I average 75-100.00 each week..I don't buy prepared items-frozen dinners. I do a lot of baking for home and for work..I attempt to cook big meals for supper. The only time we eat out is if we go away for the day to the mall or get parts for his business, lately that seems like a weekly event but usually it might be once a month. I am sure I could cut back if need be though. I do tend to overspend at times at the stores. We buy no pops, i might buy junk food for dh such as chips or ice cream if he deserves it
