I applaud you for stocking up though. Buying in bulk (like 10 lbs. worth) saves you $$$
fixed

To be fair I did purchase some high quantities... like 8 cans of tuna, and 16 cans of chunky soup (4 for 5 bucks) plus lots of fruits and veggies and lunchmeat. I usually pack my lunch so I'll eat it all but still - $180!!!!!

You are not a frugal shopper. I only spend $20 a week on food. $1 Michellina frozen meals are your friend. Shop at a store that has good sales every week (Meijer in my area) and just buy the stuff that's on sale.

Pfft... My grocery bill is generally about $200 every two weeks + as needed and fresh produce. I'd estimate probably $500 a month on groceries. Of course it's for a family of five... so
In any event, as an experiment, when I moved up to NY in November I ended up living by myself for a month. My first trip for groceries consisted of $20, which last me 2 weeks. Families are fucking expensive.

You fail at life and spending your money wisely. $180? The worst part is, you put "I bought 8 cans of tuna" in your main post. Tuna is about $.60 a can. "OH NOES BREAKING THE BANK" :roll: I hate it when people spend money they don't need to spend and then complain about it. STFU already.

Not quite. Ramen was a small part of the diet... as well as PB&J, Tuna, Macaroni & Spaghetti Sauce, Tortilla Chips and a few other things. Included in the $20 was also 4 reusable plastic containers so I could take lunches to work with me. Target FTW!

You feed 5 ppl on $500/month? Yikes, I'd hate to see the quality of meals you are preparing for them on that budget.
