How much do you spend on food per week?
« on: December 01, 2009, 01:32:29 PM »
I'm planning a new diet,

Cashew nuts, Almonds, Cheese, Turkey Breast, Olive Oils, Spinach

I've calculated that I would spend around £25-30 ($41-50) per week

I don't use supps. Does this sound reasonable?

That sounds about right. I spend anywhere from 45 to 65 a week on 14 dozen large eggs, 6 packages of chicken breast, 3 salmon , sweet potatos, oatmeal and natural penut butter. Just have to know where to shop.

You are a man with muscles (no homo).

I find myself spending a little over $50 a week probably. After the chicken and beef, everything else isn't too expensive. Usually buy some eggs and seafood too. Fiance buys fresh veggies and that costs nearly as much as the meat. Carb sources, snacks and everything else costs piss all so I don't even really count it.

Protein powder stretches the dollar too. I usually eat a bowl of bran flakes with protein each day so knocking off a cheap meal for a dollar really helps big time.

How much do you spend on juice would be the correct question..

You look good, but I'm gonna go ahead and guess that you are under 5 foot 8.

I work with my parents give me . im 5.7ft .'

  Trick is to find stores with good deals. For example. Jewel charges 2.50cent for dozen eggs.  Where I shop its anywhere from .60 - .99cents per dozen large or jumbo eggs. chicken breast usually is 1.29 a pound.  sweet potatos 49 cents a pound or  4pounds for dollar, salmon is 3.99 a pound.

 LOL usually when my bill gets up to be 75 dollars its because im buying shit load of sweets and ice cream.

I live in Chicago (expensive city). Like i said over here big chain stores like Jewel or DOminiks sells dozen eggs for 2.50 or 3 dollars, salmon is 7 dollars a pound , chicken breast is 5 dollars a pound but if you go to smaller stores then its way cheaper like eggs for 89cents a dozen.

Big chain stores jack up there prices because they spend millions on advertisement and they usually have twice as many employees then the smaller stores.

Im sure BLOCKHEAD knows of the store im talking about "Shop and Save " right next to niles xsport in golf mill mall.

Yes but those huge stores also get an insane bulk discount since they buy 10,000,000 units a month instead of 1,000

I've NEVER in my life, ANYWHERE seen eggs for .89 cents a dozen... that's like a myth..

I buy in bulk at Costco.

I have 3 prot shake a day, and 3-4 regular meals.  My wife will stop and buy a few things now and then, but usually $60 or 70 a week at costco and $50 or 70 a week at the regular store is all i spend.

That's pretty much my spending schedule for food as well, maybe every other day I buy a lunch at work (medical building) but I have a personal mini-fridge in my office so most of the time I bring meals that my fiancee makes.

Not counting eating out. I spent around 100-120 or so a week at H.E.B. But that includes cleaning stuff, and some non-food items tho.
