You should look into the advice in the Groceries section of the forum for tips on how to reduce your grocery bill. Using coupons and coupon stacking is a great way--specially if your local stores double coupons. At first it may seem like a drag, but I have found it to be fun once you get going--a challenge, if you will, to keep saving more and more money every time I go to the grocery store.

No, we don't have kids at home, but last year my Parents and my Brother, his Wife and 2 kids moved near us from California. Part of the grocery bills for the last 7 months was definitely feeding more than just the two of us. Recently, like at Easter Dinner, we had everone bring a dish, so we didn't have to foot the bill for the whole meal. Things like that will save us I'm sure.
