How much is your weekly shop?

2 adults £50-80 depends on how kind the yellow stickers are
Does not include pet food or some toiletries - as I do a separate 3 monthly shop at savers and pets at home

About £70-80 per week for 3 adults, 4 when DS home from uni. Includes all toiletries, booze etc, and no top up shops. We don't eat meat or fish and that must keep costs down a lot.

I’ve just paid for a delivery saver and I’m now doing a shop every 4-5 days rather than weekly, we waste less, and I think overall we spend less. No top up trips to supermarkets, I just do a small online order. I do meal plan, we always have one night of baked potatoes or sausage sandwiches which is a cheap meal night, and I do things like buy big trays of chicken thighs and strip all the meat off to save money (it’s so much cheaper). To be honest I don’t know how much we spend, probably works out around 130 per week but that doesn’t include dog food, or any meals out but we don’t do that very often at all. Kids have school lunches in addition to that.

best thing about the delivery saver is I don’t get meal planning block, I just do a couple of days worth of thinking at a time, add one easy meal, one batch cook meal and done.

No allergies, no dietary needs, normal "from scratch" meals, including only the 2 adukts making lunch from home. 2 adults and one teenager (with huge appetite). Around 90 per week.
If we cut back, I think we coukd do 70 per week (ie every week, not just for a month or so).

We budget £700 a month -family of 3. DD almost an adult (16) and a dog.

The £700 includes toiletries, cleaning products etc.

This used to be £500 a couple of years ago, but has slowly crept up due to cozzy livs

About £85 for four adults.

family of two and a cat - around £150. But I’m vegan and my son isn’t and he has specific dietary requirements (he’s got special needs). Things like cat litter, baby wipes, laundry pods, cleaning wipes etc really bulk up the amount spent. I guess a lot of my food is pre prepared such as those microwave veg or ready meal - so it really makes things expensive too. (Im disabled myself)

When my fiance is home from offshore £170 a week for us and a teenager and 11 years old. My teenager eats a ridiculous amount of food but healthy food. I can do it a wee bit less when he's away but not much tbh!

Usually about £30 per adult per week. Today, it was £55 for a week's food for 2 adults.

That included a mix of fresh fruit & veg, meat & fish, dairy & snacks for ds.

I cook from scratch. I also make all our bread, buying a sack of flour straight from the mill once every 6 months, so that isn't included. A large wholemeal loaf costs me just under £1. I don't buy brands or alcohol.

I'd spend loads if I shopped in Sainsbury's too. That's why I shop in Aldi! I spend between £100 and £120 in Aldi and usually get about £20 of bits next door in lovely Booths (including gluten and dairy-free stuff for me, which is expensive.

I really like Sainsbury's, but not as much as I like going to a cheaper supermarket and just buying whatever I fancy.

I am due to have my first in December - meaning that we need to cut down on our food shop! At the moment, between two of us we spending around £150 a week on shopping/top up bits (Tesco). I think we are going to start doing our big shop at Aldi to see if it makes a difference and start to do more cook from scratch meals/planning. Our problem is we are lazy, pre made sauces are a big cost for us and something I will be trying to make at home.

We also have a bad takeaway habbit that needs to be stopped - at least once a week we spent about £25ish on a takeaway 🙃.

Where do you shop?! Fortnum and Mason's?

£110 a week at lidl for two adults and two DS, one of which is a teenager. We eat meat free Monday to Friday but don't use fake meat, we only cook with dried beans and pulses and eat a lot of dhal, bean chilli, jacket potatoes etc. My eldest does a sport at competitive level and certainly seems to be thriving so perplexed by the protein comments. We spend an additional £200 a month on pet food and supplements for two large dogs and two elderly cats, one of whom requires daily meds.

A lot! Probably £250 maybe a little more each week for two adults and two teens and one child. Two Coeliacs which I think adds to the cost.

We make all meals and eat alot of fresh produce.

But this is all meals including packed lunches and all cleaning items, washing and toiletries. We rarely eat out, don’t have take aways and I don’t even stretch to a coffee out!

£250/week family of two…me and my other half

About £120 for 2 adults and 2 teens, mix of Sainsbury's and Waitrose. Doesn't include kids lunches during the week.

So confuse OP, we are a family of four and do a Sainsbury’s shop monthly of about £130 but top up at Tesco on weekends for milk, bread, etc. all non food items are bought in bulk so not an expense each month

2 adults including toiletries £60 a week mostly can push to £70 on occasion when need washing detergent

About £250 a week. Three adults, two teenagers. Quite complex dietary requirements due to autistic, fussy eaters and allergies. DGS is having a growth spurt, and seems to grow an inch a week, so eats a lot of meat and can eat five Weetabix as a top up in the evening! We could cut down on snacks but my DH is a soft touch and keeps on buying them!

Yeah we're between 100-175 depending on how low our meat stocks have gotten in the freezer, two adults, one DC and a dog.

But we rarely eat out, both of us take our own lunches to work, DD eats at nursery but will likely be on packed lunches when she gets to school and we don't do coffee etc out (much, occasionally when I'm in the office I will allow myself one from Nero cos I enjoy it).

We cook from scratch except for the occasional chicken burgers which we do from the boxes of m&s battered chicken.

About £200 here too, maybe closer to £250. Three adults, two DC, two cats. It horrifies me but we eat well and all our lunches are included in that (no on the go meal deals etc) and I’m good about avoiding discretionary spending on coffees and etc (always with my flask!) which mitigates it a bit

Thanks and I'm aware but the original poster just said pasta and sauce. I'd always add bacon/peas/mushrooms/cheese. Otherwise for me it's just stodge and not specially healthy.

£20 on fruit would be one week for us. DD takes loads of fruit for her lunch and we have fruit at breakfast too.

Thanks, it's ok. My DD is in her 30s. Currently living with me most of the time (logistics and work location) so there's more or less two adults, 21 meals a week as she takes a packed lunch. We are not extravagant but people seem to have lower food budgets than we do. Just academic interest really.

About £150 a week…. 2 adults, 2 kids and 5 cats. Could do it for less but it includes loads of snacks etc.
