If your family's monthly income equates to £500 per head (net after bills), how much is your food shop?

DH and I have just had a discussion about this. I do pretty much all the shopping and he provides the majority of the cash for it and there seems to be a slight mis-match in our expectations. We live in London and our family income is a little over £60k gross with about £2000 a month left over a month after mortgage and utilities. There are 4 of us (+cat), we've been significantly poorer than we are now but even now I don't think I am extravagant with our weekly shop which come in between £100-£125 a week. It used to be about £80 a week but prices just seem to have rocketed but I am wondering now if I have lost my grip on things and wonder what everyone else's food budgets are so I can see which one of us needs a reality check.
