Default Re: Cost of food for one adult / a month?

Groceries only - no eating out - we budget $250 a month but hardly ever make it that high- in Sept. we were at $190 and last month $200. Do you buy a lot of prepackaged drinks? We found that drives the cost of groceries realy high.

Also, are you picking up personal/cleaning items while at the store? I found that these items are cheaper at Target or CVS than the grocery store (and I budget for them separately).
