Grocery Budget Calculator
Set a grocery budget by household size and spending level, per week, month and meal.
Every figure below is labelled in the currency you pick. Amounts are not converted — enter values in the same currency.
The formula
Weekly = adults × adult rate + children × child rate
Every result on this page comes from this formula. Nothing is rounded until the final display, so figures match a spreadsheet to the cent.
How to use the Grocery Budget Calculator
- Fill in each field with your own figures — the defaults are only there as an example.
- The result updates as you type, so there is no button to press.
- Check the breakdown under the main result for the supporting numbers.
- Use the copy button to take the result with you, or share the link to reload the same inputs.
