We are a family of 3 (dd is almost 16 so I count her as an adult). We live in Alaska and we pay quite a bit more up here for fresh fruits and veggies, dairy and meats. We live on an island where everything has to be barged in or flown in.

For us we average between $300 - $400 a month. When there is a really 'good' sale, I stock up until the next sale. I did bring a very LARGE stock-pile of canned goods with us when we moved here and we still have plenty in the pantry. I also have a large chest freezer so that helps too.

We don't have coupons here in the newspapers, but family and friend occasionally will send some. The store managers would have to seek therapy if they ever had a double or triple coupon day. LOL!

When we lived in Buffalo, NY....between all the competition and loss leaders & double/triple coupons we were only spending about $35 a week on groceries and the majority of that would be dairy products. How I miss those days.
