This list is a little dated, but you could probably pull it off for $50/week these days, depending upon where you live:

I’ve always fed my family on the cheap. Three teen boys and three adults got by on $150/month, but we had a HUGE garden and hunted and fished...and that was 10 years ago.

One of the few places you really have control over your household budget is in the food budget. Now that I’m just feeding me and assorted friends and relatives on a weekly basis (I love to entertain!) I find myself spending a little too much in this area, so thanks for the reminder to knock it off, LOL!
