With house guests lately, I'm at $116 a month per person for food at home. We eat pretty healthy - mostly whole foods, lots of veggies, some organic and low preservatives. I collect ethnic and whole foods type recipe books for a hobby and match up the recipes with this week's best loss leaders and closeouts, and whatever I've stockpiled in the freezer and pantry.
Dining out is usually around $100 - $200 a month between us. We go out for ethnic food with a coupon when it is just the two a few times a month or get carry out Dim Sum, but nights out with friends and club events usually bring up the total. We don't spend much on booze at home. I buy a case of beer every other month on sale or at Costco and wine is usually 75% off the winery prices at Grocery Outlet.
