Our family of three shoots for $300/month. I don't think it's up to any of us to say definitively what is too much for anyone else. We all have our budgets, we all have our goals. If $100/week feels good for you and fits your budget, go with it. And when that works and you want to try to trim things, you can go to $95/week, and so on...
