Two Under 2

If you already have 2u2...

How much do you spend at the grocery store each week?  (by grocery store I mean groceries plus baby supplies if you buy them at two different places)  We buy all of our groceries and baby supplies at one store and we are spending on average of about $160 per week.  Just trying to see if thats about the norm for others with 2u2.  (my DD is FF)

Thanks.

  • Just wanted to say I love your daughters name...our DDs middle name is Reese and I so badly wanted it to be her first name.  My husband was all for a different name that we both liked so I eventually gave in!  Anyways, we go to the grocery store every two weeks and lately the bill is always just under 200 bucks.  Granted, we have not bought diapers in awhile because whenever my parents or the inlaws come over they seem to think we always need diapers!  Iam breastfeeding and supplementing with forumula so formula is not purchased every time we go.

  • We spend about $120 - $160 for groceries, cleaning, and baby supplies. I BF dd2 but organic whole milk for DD1 costs the same as formula here. If it matters, we're in the midwest were prices are probably fairly low.

  • We buy all of our groceries and most of our baby supplies at one place too, and we average exactly what you do ... $160 per week. That seems like a lot to me, and we keep trying to find ways to reduce it but with 2 in diapers and 1 on formula (and baby food), it just doesn't seem possible.

  • I live in MA if it makes a difference but I probably spend about 500.00 a month for groceries, diapers and formula...so roughly 125.00/week...I buy a lot of my groceries at BJ's and usually have at least $25-30 worth of coupons when I go there...When stuff is on sale I stock up big time...
  • You don't want to know what I spend in groceries a week. I buy a LOT of organic products though (milk, eggs, etc.) and my meat comes from a butcher.........

  • Well, I brest fed and now my kids are out of diapers, so we don't spend quite that much.  I remember formula being $$$ with #1, which was my main motivation for BF #2.  It should come down a little as your DC gets older, but then your kids will be eating more so it won't go down too much.

  • $80 for the 4 of us plus a teenager (15yo SS) here every weekend. BUT we did/do cloth diapers, BF, and when DD ate babyfood I made it... so there's not really "baby supplies" in that figure.
