I have found that sometimes it is cheaper to buy the smaller bags of sugar (and make up to the weight you are after)if they are on special.

Absolutely, this is a great way to save a little if you look at cost per 100g rather than the price on the label in general hey

I remember how hard it was to stick to a grocery budget when my kids were teens. Of course, teens aren't as motivated to eat less processed or cheaper items. They want those popular, tasty items over meat/starch/fruit or veg 3x a day. My kids are all adults now. Only 2 currently live at home. Once they started working part-time, I started a rule. If they didn't like what I bought, they could purchase their own foods/snacks for themselves. It helped a lot! I haven't had to really increase my budget since 2020, even though prices have skyrocketed. We currently spend $1100/month on groceries, including hygiene & cleaning products.♥️🇨🇦

In Australia at Woolies ours is 3 packs of meat for $15 and chicken mince is currently just $5.50 a half kilo. Half a kilo of beef mince is $6.50 and a kilo is $11 for the same as yours 13% fat Pork mince is $6 for 500 grams or $8 for 800 grams The nut bar pack is $6 but half price often same with shapes, normally $4 but last week they were $2 a pack Necafe box of Cappuccino is $11 2 kg of flour plain is $2.70 we dont have bigger bags than that 2 kilos of white sugar is $2.85 and 3 kilos is $4.25 we dont have 1.5 kilos here but for 1 kilo its $2.00 cat food prices have jumped here a 12 pack of sachets cost $14.50 Purina one urinary care cat food 12 pack is on special this week for $13.50 saving $3.50 egg prices are up so its $5.00 for the basic cage free dozen and then more expensive if buying free range which can go up to $9.00 Cheese prices are insane. For a kilo block of tasty cheese is $9.50 and $9.50 for 700 grams for grated and these are just the Woolies brand. I shop for 3 adults for breakfast lunch and dinner for 7 days and have also 2 Chihuahuas and 2 cats where I buy a chicken mince 2kgs foir $11 that they all eat. But my shopping after buying meat, meals for the week, toilet rolls , cat biscuits and dog biscuits etc including snacks usually cost me anywhere between $200 and $250. Our meals are simple including things like, spaghetti Bolognese, stir fry chicken Hokkien noodles, butter chicken and rice, Shepard's pie, Stew Chilli con Carne over jacket potatoes Lasagna to name a few. Bearing in mind this total was only $120 two years ago . Hope this helps, Rachel xx

Hi from Canada 👋🏻 I stock up on ground beef (what we call beef mince) when it is $3.99/lb. So your package would cost me $6.58 CAD, $8 NZD. It is interesting to see how prices compare in different places! Ground beef is a staple meat for my family, we can’t afford to buy more expensive cuts! We are a family of 8 on a single income. I think the total cost of your haul would be pretty similar for me here.
