Ah yes. We spent over $1400 last year at Chewy's for just one dog. Only spent $464 at the Vet in comparison.Household of 1.
I average $375-$400 per month at the grocery store; this includes all paper goods and cleaning supplies, etc. (It's too much trouble to break them out from the total).
I buy no meat or alcohol, but I don't skimp on fresh fruit and veg. I pick up takeout maybe 6-8 times a year; I don't eat out at all.
This figure does not include cat food/cat litter/cat treats/cat supplements. I get those from Chewy/Amazon. All those items have skyrocketed in price since the pandemic, and they warrant their own line item in the budget spreadsheet! I love my 17-year-old fur ball, and spare no expense on her, so I just don't look at the invoices any more.

I'm a little surprised, but I know people can be pretty spendy when they have the dough to do it. In a more frugal forum I sometimes read, there was someone who reported spending $190/mo for a family of 4! That's about what I spend for just me.
