How much is your weekly shop?

£130-150 pw on Ocado for 2 adults a teen and a cat.

Anywhere between £180-£300 per week for two adults and two teenagers, plus 2 cats. Average is probably £200. However I am catering for one vegetarian, 2 meat eaters and one autistic ARFID sufferer so am basically making 3 separate meals every single time. I try to cook everything I can from scratch where possible to minimise use of UPFs, I like to buy higher welfare meat etc. My child with ARFID basically only eats branded processed crap unfortunately.

this would include toiletries and cat food/litter and cleaning products!

£150 a week for two adults and two DC, but I could easily knock a bit off by comprising on quality or picking cheaper meals to cook, reducing meat intake more, etc. That does include usual cleaning materials etc.

Around £150-£170 a week at Aldi, family of 6. I really would like to spend less but can’t seem to manage it. Kids are very fussy eaters so that makes things more difficult

£150 next week.

Sorry I forgot to add this is food for the week for me and my two dc (who I have this weekend and on weds through to Sunday) my DP will stay with me on tomorrow, Monday and Tuesday night. I also already had ingredients at home.
so the plan is
Sunday (tomorrow) - shepherds pie (4 of us)
Monday - chicken burgers (me and dp)
Tuesday - bacon pasta bake (me and dp)
wednesday- leftover pasta bake for me and 2dc or carobonara if there’s not enough left.
thursday- green Thai chicken and courgette curry with rice/poppadoms
friday- pasta with pork mince sauce
Saturday-chicken fajitas and rice
sunday- beef stirfry

I’ll need to buy lettuce and coconut milk. I forgot those.

I did a combination shop at Lidl & Sainsbury's today including cleaning products. I didn't have much change left over from £150 & there's 4 of us including 2 teens plus a cat.

I think the issue is that for such a long time food has been incredibly cheap in the uk and quite a small proportion of people’s income.

it is possible to spend less by not having meat and processed foods on a daily basis.

We pay around 180 plus a top up shop around 40, usually a mix of Sainsbury’s, Aldi, Lidl and Waitrose, some weeks it’s a large shop in Lidl and a top up in Waitrose, others Sainsbury’s. The cost doesn’t seem to vary much between all supermarkets. Family of 4, 2 under 5. We cook from scratch but buy a lot of organic, fresh berries, meat and fish which will bring the cost up. We also eat proper lunches, not just a sandwhich and I think that brings the cost up too.

my weekly shop is between £170-£200 for a family of 4. But DD is gluten / dairy and egg free and I find the free from ranges about triple the price of standard food 🙄

@Totallytoti idk which country you are comparing with. But I can tell you there is a high increase in prices during the last few years.
So yes it might be cheaper than France or Germany or wherever but it's a third higher than we're used to paying in very very recent memory.

Just me, £240pm (I work it out monthly as some weeks are more expensive)
shop at aldi
doesn't include cat food, toilet roll or toiletries

£250 for me and two DDs - all fruit, veg and meat is organic. Waitrose and local farm shops.

I spent a year living abroad for work and we used to haggle over bananas (that's how rare fresh fruit and veg was). I was so sick within a few weeks given how little fruit and veg there was that it's now the one thing I will never live without. Unfortunately, that makes food shops expensive.

And four dogs...but I count them separately.

I really agree about the food being cheap here. Am from another country originally and I almost daily think how cheap it is here. I always think when people complain about the price of food they do not know how to cook or doing something wrong

About 90 pound a week. Ocado. Just me at home.

350pw. 5 people including 2 very hungry sports-playing teens that need lots of transportable food, and one person with dietary limitations that means extra on alternative ingredients etc. It's a lot, and has gone up from 250 a couple of years ago. I cook loads from scratch to try to reduce some UPFs, and now find that baking - with real butter and eggs etc - is more expensive than buying pre-packaged snacks. I try to buy higher welfare chicken and beef mince etc. It adds up very quickly.

Also how old are your kids? - I have 4 teens eating more than adults which is very different to small kids!!

We only buy cheaper meat - mince, chicken thighs etc. I do a veggie meal a couple of times a week. And we often have roast but I'll buy a chicken or pork.

Rarely have fish etc as too expensive.

But yeah I reckon your bill sounds about right if you're eating well. Our food is still quite cheap compared to lots of countries.

What kind of meals do you make. I also make almost everything from scratch but make good use of my ingredients too. We also have some takeout days but I’m able to easily keep it to about £100

I spent €84 today. Receipt attached. I had bits and pieces at home already so didn’t need to buy EVERYTHING. But I average about 65-70per week.

We are a family of three, sometimes 4 adults (when DDs boyfriend is with us), and i can usually get our weekly shop in under £100. This morning it was £68 in Sainsbury's and another £18 at the butchers, so under my target. However, we all work full-time, DH and I are both on Mounjaro so we don't snack, and cooking is one of my hobbies so we buy ingredients rather than ready-to-eat stuff. That all keeps our bill down.

My sister has three teenage kids, who all eat like piglets, God only knows what her shopping bill is like.

Family of five approximately £100 a week in Aldi. Mostly cook from scratch meals. The two older kids have school dinners and a snack type dinner so scrambled eggs on toast or beans on toast for dinner due to all the clubs they go to after school.

Around £150, including a top up shop.
Family of 4, we also meal plan and everything homemade etc.

Depends on what you buy, where you buy it.

Family of 3, Budget £600 for groceries, toiletries and cleaning stuff each month - monthly stock up at costco plus small weekly shop most months it's £525 or thereabouts, anything left over gets put in the emergency fund.
