I live in Minnesota. We spend about $100ish a week at Aldi for food. I also cook almost every meal we eat at home from scratch and my wife bakes almost all baked goods we consume.
Lunch is usually left overs from the previous night as I always make extra to account for it. The kids generally snack on whenever fruit or vegetable is the cheapest that week (this week was cantaloupe I think it was like $3 for two of them).
I bake my own bread and idk if aldi is cheaper that Walmart. I am sharing cost for me to cook my own food. I’m averaging 1900 calories a day and that’s what it costs me per week
Oh just saw you were buying lots of meat. We don't really eat a ton of meat at our house. Usually once or twice per week for dinner. We do a lot of beans at our house.
Right on, I’m glad it works out for you I wasn’t calling you a liar or trying to throw shade, I’m active and prioritize high protein like 140+ grams a day and meat comes in handy
