I finally looked at my grocery spending for the year...

I added up all my receipts from my main store, and I spent exactly $2,400. That's only $200 a month for just me. I always felt like I was overspending, especially with prices going up. Seeing the actual number made me realize my meal planning is working better than I thought. Has anyone else been surprised by a yearly total like that?

Check if your number includes non-food items like cleaning supplies or pet food. My "grocery" total was way off until I separated those out, because a $30 bag of dog food every month is not the same as my dinner budget.

I mean, that's a solid number, but did you factor in all the random corner store trips? Those add up fast for me.
