forcing myself to eat absolutely everything in the house before returning because one of my 2026 goals was to spend less on groceries by planning & meal prepping better!!
between Costco and Walmart I only spent about $600 so that equals about $200 a week if we can make it three weeks. And I bought a couple things that aren’t necessarily part of the “groceries” like my candle, which will last me for months instead of buying small ones that lose their smell instantly.
What the heck does everybody spend on groceries per month? I feel like we eat pretty healthy, and we don’t eat out a ton- maybe once a week? So I have no idea what’s a proper “budget” here.
