I used to budget $100-$150 a fortnight for myself and my two boys. That would feed the three of us one week and me the second week (50/50 care). Now my boys are teenagers and I’m working, I’ve upped it to about $200 a fortnight, sometimes a bit more depending on how much leftovers are in the freezer.
Single mum 1 child school age, i spend about $150 a fortnight. That’s meat and vege and i make all treats myself to save money so buy flour, cocoa powder etc
Very much depends on what you cook. I can feed 6 people and 3 dogs for under $200 a week. So based on that I would say $70 a week would be more then enough.
