Analyzing The Food Budget

This is how I analyzed our food budget:

1. Started checking prices at all major grocery stores and wrote them in a price comparison book.

2. Made a list of the cheapest foods available.

3. Made a list of cost-per-serving for each food.

4. Did A Cost Analysis Of Meals We Currently Eat.

Let's say I want to stay within a $50 per week grocery budget...

Another way to do it would be to make a grocery list for 2 weeks or a month and keep it within budget. For example, if I want to spend $50 per week on groceries, then I could shop once a month and spend $200. When the food runs out, it runs out and we do not buy more until the next grocery day.
