Organic Bottled Tomatoes

Am I spending too much on groceries?

I have been searching for a median weekly grocery bill. I think either I spend way too much or live in a particularly expensive area (Pacific Northwest). I am spending about $400 per week on groceries for a family of three: myself, my husband and our 15 year-old son. I do not buy brand name unless I have a coupon, and only buy organic fruits and vegetables. We do not eat out often, maybe once a month, and I cook most of our meals from scratch…well, semi-scratch. Not exactly Hambuger Helper, but for instance if I make spaghetti I use both tomato sauce and canned or bottled sauce (whatever’s on sale) Is the Portland Metro area that much more expensive? I also do most of my shopping at Winco and Wal-mart Supercenter. Any suggestions? Or you can just make me feel better and tell me you spend more than I do!

Did you really keep track of all of your food expenses (and not add in soap, beauty products,etc) because $400 / wk is very high. PNW is a bit pricey, but not that much for food, unless you are dining on salmon and halibut all the time. Do you price comparison shop? idk Winco price levels; and maybe Wal-mart is not as cheap as you think. Read the weekly ads and make a list, and shop 2 or 3 stores a week to get everyone’s low prices.
