We (Two adults and a 1 1/2 year old) spend approx. AED 200 to AED 250, ie approx. US$ 50 to US$ 70 a week on food including dine-outs, which happen around once or twice a week. Food is one of the few things here in Dubai that is still cheap.

Re: How much do you spend on food a week/month?

You just checked your credit card bill, I guess. :D

Re: How much do you spend on food a week/month?

Credit card bill and bank statements.... I only ever buy food on credit or debit cards, it make adding up the cost easier at the end of the month. I've started analyzing my expenditure each month in a big colour-coded excel spreadsheet to try and identify potential areas for cutbacks.

Re: How much do you spend on food a week/month?

So you are not a scientist rather an accountant?

Re: How much do you spend on food a week/month?

I dont use my credit card when its about food.
I have a budget, I like to spend within....
In dollars it would be perhaps 450....
I keep a reseed for everything I buy..in a sep. envelope.
I try to buy larger stuff at sale and bigger stock
such as rice or cold pressed olive oil etc.
I prefer less "refined" products... organic brown rice
i buy whole organic spelt grain to grind at home.....
so some months are more expensive than others...
But salads, fruits and veg. are a must each day
with either a good steak or pk-ni dish with organic
home made roti.....
You eat lesser when its organic brown rice or
organic spelt roti.....
And yes, I also try to rent movies, buy other
things within the budget. Its fun.....
I make fish and seafood a couple of times
in a week. so....variation is yummy.
Mama, bro and I....but two younger bros
come over too to dine....

How do you guys spend sooo little money on food? hawwww

I cant even imagine spending less than a few hundred US per month. And that is just on me as I live alone. smack

I need a budgettttttttttttttttttttttt. Infact I set budgets for myself and then I end up exceeding themmmmmmmmmm.

Pathani is that UK currency per month? Organic does tend to be more expensive, though I lub organic milk. Yumm.
