Does anyone have a good estimate of what a raw vegan single girl would spend per week on groceries??? I have no idea if I am undernourishing myself becuase of being in school and not buying enough food.

thoughts?

also, I live in WI and produce is not inexpensive, but not horribly priced either. I would say average.

thanks so much!! smiling smiley

I'm gonna guess $60 per week could work. However, my guesstimate is based on prices and produce that I get at my local Farmer's Mkt. The people that I buy from every Sat. have gotten to know me and because they know that I am a regular customer, most of them give me price breaks.

I spend about $130 a week, living in DC area and buying all organic. More in summer, when there is local produce available, which is normally more expensive
