I went grocery shopping at Cub Foods off Cliff Road and unloaded them on our kitchen island. Without coupons at an average (not posh) store, my groceries rang up at $81.16. How does that compare with grocery prices where you live?
The ubiquitous Nutella! Graham crackers--I miss them.
OK, for here in Jerusalem, I averaged my last 3 months expenditures at the open air market, supermarkets, and corner grocery. For me (living alone) and a few dinner guests a few times a month, it came out to about $210 per month.
We are just now getting "our feet wet" re. groceries here in Santa Fe. What we spend depends upon where we shop. Less $ at the lower end grocery stores, but more $ elsewhere. We shop in several different places, but found a GREAT little store yesterday where the groceries are more expensive (the meat prices are sky high...but beautiful cuts!), and, unfortunately, it's my favorite place so far. I think it's the same rountine in the Cities, also. Bon appetit!!
Pass the Nutella, willya?! It's so good on crêpes...
Cub does a good job of offering some upscale items in a discount setting. SuperValu, and consequently, Cub, does not operate in California, but if they did, «Louis» would probably shop there.
It seems to me that it is a little bit expensive.... But it is difficult to compare when one does not buy the same products. Cheese is cheaper in France...
Na Du Nutellafan...das esse ich auch gerne. Ist das alles für dich? Es gibt so viele leckere Sachen bei euch in den USA. What is the red one in the left corner?
That Nutella or milk chocolate and bananas on a crepe...all rolled up and eaten like a burrito...YumYum! I feasted on that at the crepe stands in Paris last summer. How do you guys eat the Nutella there in Eagan?
Seems a bit pricey, but we don't have Lingon Berries here. And except for the Jarlsberg, I don't recognise the brand names of the cheeses -- they vary so much in price. The asparagus is very skinny compared to Australian product.
Wow, that's a lot, but on the other hand, you bought a number of imported items. Asparagus is costly here; not too many people eat it, and I guess they don't grow much, = higher price.
just for what i see standing at the sink, i would say that is expensive. I do grocery shopping twice a week and for 3 adults and 3 kids pay about 200 euro (see almost 300 dollars) a week.
Cheese, asparagus, crackers-- hmm I think it would be more, here. I'll have some feta on the whole wheat crackers, thank you. And maybe a nice glass of that white stuff. Three Rivers Daily Photo
I remember that I had quite a shock moving from New Jersey to California. In central Jersey I used to spend $50-80/week on groceries but when I moved to San Francisco that amount doubled.
I don't know what it would be ind Denmark, but short time ago the press told that the prices of daily necesseties are as much as 40% higher as in other European countries. We often look for the "weekly offer". Bread is expensive.

tu as le mm Brie qu ici ;O)
I'd probably spend around $81.16 on the same groceries but there would be a case or two of Diet Coke, as well. Whaat?
That's about what I'd spend for a pretty heavy shopping trip, but if I laid them all out on a table, I think it'll be more than this.
Cheeses! Mmmm…

It seems a bit pricey, but they are probably twice the size of everything here in Japan, it sounds about right :D
un spécial régime ;)
More food! Sheesh!
Where's the beer and wine, the candy and ice cream? Where's the bagels and cream cheese.
You got all the wrong stuff!
Oh, well...the prices don't sound bad. We haven't spent that little at the grocery store in many years!

hi bro,
if i convert your money to malaysian ringgit, it is about RM162.00... with this amount, i can get double of your groceries.
I count whatever I have in the cart and multiply it by 3 ($3.00) and that's usually pretty close to my final total.
About the same here too!
a lot number of foods.. it would be around of IDR 800.000, My God that was very expensive..
For what I see and for what I remember, food is quite cheaper there than here.

Ist das alles für dich?

Herzliche Grüsse
Probably around 40 dollars here, not much more. Nutella and diet coke included :)
You have Nutella ??????????
Jeg ble SULTEN, og fikk plutselig lyst på NUTELLA, som jeg ikke har hatt på mange år.:-)
Great idea. I will post the results of Moscow shopping so we can compare!

Pretty close!
Feels indeed a bit expensive. A litre milk costs currently a dollar and a large bread goes for half of a dollar, same for the coke.
Years since last I had Nutella. A nice Thursday for you all.
