We are a family of 2 (living in downtown TO) and our bill per week ranges from $75 to $100. The groceries cover breakfast, lunch and dinners. We eat out once a week (dinner) and that costs anywhere from $25 to $50. We plan our weekly menue around sale items at the grocery store and this has cut down on cost and waste. Our meals are well balanced with milk, meats and lots of fruits and veggies.

Dont forget the amount of taxes that will be taken! depending on his salary and if you will be working here more than 6 months get ready for a serious take home cut. Lets just say gov took 50,000 in taxes last year from my husbands income. The more money you make the more they take.

We are a family of 3. 2 adults with a 6 month old baby living in BC. We spend $900-1100 on groceries in the winter and maybe a few 100 less in the summer when the farmers markets are open. Choosing to eat gluten free and organic produce seems to cost more than the processed genetically modified crap that i used to buy. I’d like to know where you shop that will cost you $250 a month as a single person. Thats what i spent every 2 weeks or so when i was single. Then again that was city life. Hmmm i think its time to start growing my own food…. lol!!
