I haven't stayed on my $500. budget.  Costco really wrecks it when I spend $150 just there.  Other than that, I am over $23 and have 1 week left.  We will be eating from the pantry a lot!
 My biggest pitfalls are organic milk and hormone free meat.  It costs more, but tastes better and is better for you.
