Reply To: How much $$$ does a typical Frum family spend on groceries per week?

As happens many times in the CR, the original question gets derailed based on the responses. The OP asked about what a typical frum family spends on groceries. The OP did not define groceries but some took this to mean food only without any non-food but necessary items. Also we dont have a reference to “typical”. Most members of my household are adults (both medioraisa and under secular law). KG has shown a way (although I do not agree with some of his choices) that it is possible if you severely limit your food purchases (no meat, chicken or fish most of the week) obvious small portion sizes then the food bill alone can be around 160-175. However, most people I know do noyt limit the word groceries to food items only.
