The Great Grocery Project

Message posted by: Lauri F.

More details on this later, but some quick questions for y'all.

1) How much do you spend per week on groceries (from the store)? For how many people?

2) How much do you spend weekly on food outside of groceries (takeout, restaurants, coffee, etc.)? Do you loop such purchases into groceries or count it separately (as in a weekly allowance covers those costs)?

3) Do you split your purchases among stores? As in, you shop at a traditional grocery store for the bulk of your items and flesh it out with warehouse club and/or online and/or specialty store purchases?

4) Do you "work the circulars"? If so, how and how much does this save you?

5) List any other cost-cutting grocery habits you may have.
