Ditto. Shoes would be flying. I bought 2% milk once and I thought they were going to disown me. God knows what they would have done if I bought skim.

My family doesn't mess around with food. It's gotta be full fat, meat and potatoes.

We spend like $150 at Kroger every two weeks. Another $150 for meat, veggies and fruit, spices and stuff from the Arabic or Indian store. And then another $200ish every month for bulk basics from Sam's Club. Family of 4 (daily) and brothers and sis-in-law on the weekends.
