Single guy without a car and a small-ish kitchen.

I go to Safeway 2-3x a week and (usually) TJs once a week for specific items. I usually spend on average anywhere from $90 to $110 per week, so around $400/month give or take.

I usually just buy the same fresh things over and over again...think eggs, juice, fruits, veggies, chicken, fish, cheese, and yogurt. I have a pretty well-stocked pantry of dry goods, frozen foods, and a shit ton of condiments that I top off as needed, maybe once every 4 months.

same, buy fresh stuff every few days, safeway prices are best because of the online just for you coupons, go to whole foods once in a while for good beef or fish

Yeah the Safeway app is pretty great...I'm surprised more people don't use it.

yea we’re pretty similar, just times 2. I should in theory be capturing a saving benefit per person, so need to figure that part out.
