For those who have regular meals at home, how much does your grocery and household necessities (like tissue paper / laundry soaps etc) add up to every week? I'm a fulltime housewife and I spend about $150. In my home theres only me, hubby and toddler. Friends and family drop by occasionally. Sometimes i feel it's too much but i cook everyday. And i also buy toiletries from cheaper shops like Venus or CK. I will wake up very early twice or thrice a week to go to wet market to get fresh meats and seafood at cheaper price. But I tend to buy organic foods, bigger prawns (small ones cheaper) or more nutritious fish like fresh salmon and codfish sometimes.

I spend about 60SGD a week. I try to keep my expenses low by buying house brands for certain items. My household maintains a relatively red-meat-free and we eat a lot of seafood and chicken. So that's how we keep our expenses low. Also, when there's a sale, I will capitalize on certain frozen items like chicken breasts and buy more.
