I thought this might be helpful for people to see what guys are usually buying and possibly give new ideas.

My list not including stuff for wife and kids are the following for a two week period:

-1 large salmon preferably wild caught
-3 lb lean ground beef
-8 large size skinless chicken breasts
-2 steaks
-1 beef roast
-Pack of 4 to 6 farmer sausages
-Pack of breakfast sausage or bacon.(rotates every second week)
-18 free-range Omega 3 large size eggs
-1 Pack of igh protein cottage cheese
-3 large containers of 0%fat 15g protein Greek yogurt
-3 cartons of 0%fat Fairlife milk
-blueberries
-ovacados
-olive oil
-carrots,cucumbers, broccoli,coliflower,
-2 bags of apples
-2 bundles of bananas
-cinnamon
-beets
-1 loaf honey and oats brown bread
-white rice
-white or sweet potatos interchanging
-1 bag of protein powder (per month)
-protein pancake batter
This basicly covers the weightlifting/medical use food I need. Keeps me at roughly 200g protein a day for two weeks. I don't really count any other macros I just drop most carbs or raise them whether loosing or adding weight. This is also a fairly low saturated fat/high healthy fat/highish fiber diet. Easily affordable good quality whole foods for under 500$ every two weeks.

Yea prices have gone up in my area. Getting real, healthy whole foods is just way more expensive then the average westerners diet. Honesy for my wife, me kids and dogs were usually paying 800ish every two weeks.
 
We've found the food land we have in our town has started price gouging by approximately 12%.
Our towns pop was 8500 a few years back now its around 20k and they've taken advantage of it.
We will drive into the next larger town over and go to a sobeys for our big weekly shop. We spend an average of 450 a week for a full shop. Just over 530 if we shop local.
 
Stock my freezer with bear / deer meat. Then always have a few 25lbs bags of rice and oatmeal on deck, as well as an abundance of whey protein. So for me it’s mostly micro items like;

Diet coke, rice cakes, hot sauce, spinach, fruits, tea, vinegars.
