We used to go weekly for groceries and spent hundreds per month, but have been consciously changing our buying habits for a couple of years. We've now got it down to once every 6 weeks or so for things we can't easily find elsewhere. At today's prices we'd probably be spending $450 per month, instead we're spending about $15, if that.

We fucking love not going to Walmart.

Yeah, Walmart is the last stop after Costco and Winco for us. We usually grab like 5 things.
