Grocery Budget? (hexbear.net)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by isame@hexbear.net to c/askchapo@hexbear.net
 

I'm trying to come up with a realistic budget number for groceries. I'm 33 and have a moderately physical full-time job, and I ride a mountain bike on the trails probably 5-15 miles a week, weather and depression permitting. So I'm decently active. What do you think I should expect to spend on groceries every week, if I'm being moderately thrifty?

ETA: Bonus points if you give me a rough idea of what you'd spend the money on.

You got me ๐Ÿ˜‚ In my meager defense, I posted this right before bed and had already smoked. I left out a few details I should have included.
