My main local store is Albertsons which may not be the cheapest but not the most expensive either.

I guess for a larger family you could save a lot by going to Costo or Walmart, but for a single, it's just not practical buying large quantity of food. It's hard to store fresh vegetables for more than a week.

My estimate includes miscellaneous stuffs such as condiments, plastic/aluminum wraps and so on which could cost quite a bit.
Well hang on....I don't consider alcohol to be part of "groceries". So if you are including that in your amount, I wonder how many others are too. Please clarify. Might make you feel better.
