I recently made a video about how I made a weeks worth of meals for my family of 4 for $75.40. My typical grocery budget for my family of 4 is $100, but since one in my family is under a year old I thought that I would budget this week for $75 (what my budget for 3 people used to be). That comes to $25.13 per person for an entire week of meals + snacks.

You can likely do this for even cheaper because you probably have some of the items in your pantry already.
