Hello everyone!
I am planning to do research on how much a family spends on food each month.
I never paid attention to the cost of food before we had children. Whatever I felt like eating, I bought, and we often ate out.
Now that we have children, our expenses went up and looking for savings, I had a look at our eating pattern. Ater a short investigation, I expected savings could be made there, without sacrificing my cherished hobbies: cooking and eating.
I started not too drastically: 40% cuts. From €6-700, to €400-ish. Can one survive?
How about you? What do you spend on food and eating? You don’t mind to share your knowledge about hidden gems of good and cheap food, or have tips about efficient cooking and eating? Let me know!
I’ll start local: places in and around Zwolle where good food can be had for a good price.
For each others benefit I ask you all to give me advice on how to decrease the cost of our food, while increasing the quality of the ingredients and the taste of the result.
For everyone who likes to participate: I’ll send you my questionnaire (or we meet in person) and if you don’t mind, I use the results for a future blog post
So, what about you? Where do you buy your food? What do you pay for it? Are you happy about the quality and the way the products are produced?
