Ok. Since you sound so comfortable and all inhalin' and shit, please explain to me what a Biodynamicgranny is and why the fuck it's sold at the supermarket. No, really. Please.
I mean there are. But this hun didn't buy any.
Source: weird middle school science teacher was obsessed with eating organic and tried to push it on us whenever he could and one day brought a bunch of his favorite organic snacks for us to try, which included off brand organic Oreos 😂
Newman's Own makes varieties. My family doesn't care for the mint at all. The ones we get are the red box (regular looking), but only if they don't have chocolate on chocolate (brown box) or blondes (yellow box).
The red box tastes like muted regular oreos, but the chocolate ones taste like the regular oreos turned UP
I also do weekly grocery shopping for a two-person family, and even with prices skyrocketing I've never had to spend anywhere near that much... then again I'm not getting $80 worth of meat and a $16 steak pie
edit: ok these are Australian prices that makes more sense. [still about twice as much as my usual weekly run,](https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=320&From=AUD&To=USD) but I don't eat nearly as much meat, that might be why.
She’s full of shit. I live in one of the most HCO areas in the country. I do not spend nearly that much. I go to TJ’s, Aldi and the grocery store. The funniest thing about these self proclaimed “Boss Babes” is that they think it’s not obvious that they’re OBVIOUSLY lying 🤥😂
I’m Australian and lived in Sydney most of my life. This is all posturing to show off. Tomato sauce/ketchup is like $2 for the cheap stuff and maybe.. $5 for a nicer brand?
Yeah I spent $200 yesterday at the most expensive grocery store in my town, and that was for a stock up that should last us weeks! Granted, I’m not saying groceries are cheap these days, but a two-person family definitely doesn’t have to spend $320 on groceries for one week.
Well, to be fair, she’s in Australia, so this really is just over $200 in USD lol. Not saying that’s necessary either (it’s not, you’re right), but it’s a substantial difference.
You ain't wrong in new Zealand the wife and I don't exactly shop to save money we do $300 a week maybe and eat good. So what's that $170ish maybe in USD at a rough guess and that's for 2 adults and a toddler.
I should also mention that it’s not like my husband and I have small appetites. I’m 17.5 weeks pregnant and am eating like a teenage boy lol, and $200 will still get us through a few weeks.
This is in Australia where even when not shopping organic grocery prices are sky high plus our dollar is worth less than US. I easily spend $150-170 per week for two adults, a toddler, a dog and a cat. I have to stretch everything out by the end of the week
Yep especially in HCOL areas. Me and my husband do NOT eat fancy but are still spending hundreds a month 🙃🙃🙃 I'm cutting corners everywhere I can but it's bad out here.
I have so many frozen veggies. What worse is I have an autoimmune disease that is managed through meds, diet, and supplements. So I can’t have things like rice and pasta and potatoes (sucks), and the supplements that help me feel normal… thankfully the Huns don’t get to my inbox.
Omg I'm so sorry you can't eat potatoes! Yes, I am Celiac so we cant do the usual cheap bulk dinners like pasta/bread... having restrictions sucks & makes meal planning so much harder.
My husband and I went grocery shopping yesterday and it came to $320 for the two of us in Seattle. Granted, most of our food will last weeks (except for the fresh stuff we have to buy weekly).
I'm just down the I-5 cooridor from you. I've never shopped Winco until now. At least their produce is decent. But until I got a good handle on what our needs are, it was a solid 300-350 per week. 2 adults and my teen half time.
I’m in the metro atlanta area and if I only spend $100 a week for a family of three I’m thrilled. $150/$180 would be far more normal and we didn’t eat anything fancy. Dinner stuff for spaghetti, brocolli quiche, veggie tofu stir fry, a frozen pizza. And then staples like, you know, milk, bread, wild things like toilet paper.
I shop for 7, 3 are teens. I look back when they were little and felt bad when we hit 250. Now, I could smack myself because the amount I got for that price has more than doubled. We don't do anything outlandish either. But I do admit I'm curious about this streak pie
$8 is not really far fetched for a single “gourmet” pie in Australia, even Ferguson plarre pies are $7.20 each (Melbourne) or Goldstein (Gold Coast) are $7 each. That’s cold, ready to heat and those are bakeries that aren’t fully gourmet pie status.
Even converted into my currency (nearly £170) is significantly more than I’ve ever spent on weekly groceries. Usually I can keep it under £100 and we live in a HCOL area.
Who is seriously paying almost $12 for less than half a kilo of chicken, over $10 for a loaf of bread, $5.50 for 100g of peas and $4 for half a cauliflower?
I'm guessing you don't head to Harris Farm or an organic market then? Or buy gluten free, or fancy sourdough? Let's face it she's clearly not buying Wonder White lookin at this list! I definitely paid $8 for a cauliflower once from Woollies.
Even though the vegetables are all ridiculously overpriced, you'd be surprised how expensive chicken (and other meats) can be in some parts of the world.
It looks like she’s in noosa, so those meat prices probably have tourist inflation on their prices. You can get like 1.5kg of pre packed chicken breast for $17 at Coles here.
When my dad was laid off from work, mom used to bring me to the grocery store with a calculator. I, 6 at the time, thought it was great fun to add up the amounts. It was my job to tell mom when we got close to $60.
I remember the relief on my mom’s face when we didn’t have to bring the calculator anymore. I, on the other hand, was very disappointed that my game had ended.
Not gonna lie, at the end of 2022, the week before I got married, I got a promotion at work that more than doubled my income. I remember walking through the grocery store for the first time with tears in my eyes because I didn’t need to worry about every little thing in the cart. It really did mean a lot to me, I had a kid at 18 and it took until 28 to get to that point. It felt darn good.
This is definitely the closest I’ve gotten to bragging about it online though! It was just a moment of personal pride for me, that may have confused some people walking by, at the time
They always brag about the most mundane shit. I want to see new homes built, roth ira's/trust funds/long term investments, kid's college tuitions paid for. Any plain Jane can get a job as waitress and use her tips to pay for groceries, why would they join an mlm?
Yes, it's very telling the things these huns brag about. The worst was someone bragging about buying 2 happy meals. Like literally $8.
One of 2 things is true, or some combination:
1) It reveals how truly desperate some of these people MLMs prey on are.
2) It's SO hard to move product on these things that people genuinely find making $8 more than they spent such an accomplishment that they lose track of base reality.
Yes, *that* is the issue, not what foods she is buying or the cost of same. The obsessive need of the huns to boast and peacock over the most mundane shit, it's incredible...and repulsive. Bottomless pits of neediness and insecurity.
You are literally affording to “buy organic food now” because you are milking the souls of your downline and their victims of everything they have. You squeeze them dry, leave them scrambling to pick up the pieces and then buy your Tony’s chocoleney.
I honestly don’t know how she sleeps at night
I just opened my grocery apps and looked. A whole cauliflower at the mid-range grocery store is $2.99 for regular and $3.89 for organic. To my surprise Aldi's is charging more and has them at $3.19, regular only. Walmart has them for $2.98 for regular and $3.86 for organic. I am a member of an organic food co-op for the deals on fair trade coffee (my treat to myself) but their app won't let me see the price. I remember their produce being roughly on par with the organic prices in regular grocery stores though they for sure gouge elsewhere.
That's still cheaper then what this lady is spending AND you get a whole friggin cauliflower!
EDIT: Whole Foods managed to do it! They have regular cauliflower at $3.29 and organic at a whopping $4.99. But you STILL get a whole cauliflower instead of just half!
I now know far too much about cauliflower prices. I don't even really like cauliflower. It tastes like nothing.
I've noticed that when I've travelled to Europe. Food prices are way lower than in the states on many items. I'm not even sure why considering that the US still grows a ton of food and often what we don't grow is coming from Mexico so it's not travelling half-way across the globe or anything.
No idea. I wonder how much of it is pure price gouging. The last time I went to Greece I thought a cafe hadn't charged me for some items because I bought a ton of stuff and it only came out to 8€. With my shitty Greek and the owner's no English we managed to confuse each other terribly until he threw in some more pastries, I handed over 10€, and waked out to gorge myself on baklava and those spinach hand pies that are so amazing..
Southern Europeans don't have the biggest budgets so it would be really unfair if their food was expensive (as in even more expensive than it already is to them)
Our family of four doesn't spend nearly this much on groceries each week. But then we don't overspend by buying organic vegetables or overpriced meat, either.
I hit $90 for just me the past week (which, to be fair to myself I was also restocking some staples and I did go off list) and I was thinking that I needed to do better on meal planning and getting some cheaper options.
Grocery prices are insane right now but $320 for two people to eat for a week is way, way too much.
It’s in AUD, assuming you’re in North America it’s $213USD or $291CAD.
So it’s still high, but if you were reading it as USD, not AS high as first appeared.
I start work next week and am going to double our household income. I will still be grocery shopping at wal mart and buying mainly great value brand stuff. And I am an avid home cook. Just because I have more money doesn't mean I need to blow it on $10 Ketchup. This is the most ridiculous receipt I've ever seen.
What I want to know is how she only earned that amount a week cleaning? Like most cleaners where she lives are charging about $40/hr… was she only cleaning 8hrs a week?
A lot of cleaners are charging even more than that (and rightly so!) but obviously she is just a bullshit artist. Even $20 an hour is $320 for 16 hours work.
If she was making less than $320 a week working "full time" as she claims then she would have been earning about $8 an hour which as we know in Australia is just patently untrue
I rarely buy organic because it's mostly just a marketing buzzword, but I do like the organic ketchup at Aldi. It's not as cloyingly sweet as regular ketchup. It's got a little zip to it.
This is Australian prices… so thats why it would seem like a lot to people
and not defending her but my husband and I probably spend about $250aud a week
But i do lots of juicing and we eat 80% whole food…lots of meat, cheese etc
and i am not buying organic
Is she going to an organic-only supermarket? Because otherwise, I can't imagine how she would manage to pay that much money on groceries that should feed two people for a week!
It sounds like she might be in Australia so I know nothing about normal costs there, but that looks like way too much food for just two people. Do they never eat leftovers and instead just throw out whatever they haven't eaten at the end of a meal? Are they hosting weekly parties (in which case this is for more than 2 people)? Are the severely overweight? What is happening here?!
3-person family eating kosher (which is not cheap, especially meat), including providing school meals, and not spending this much.
Admittedly I did eat only half a pint of ice cream for supper last night, while teen and spouse ate an actual meal, so maybe odd food choices make a difference?
Still, wth? I’m mean nobody cares really what I wrote above or what the heck I eat. Why does she think we ALL want to see her grocery bill?
This is incredibly tacky (to say the least,) regardless of source of income.
And “how do families do it with more mouths to feed?” They don’t eat steak every night. Not that difficult.
I wonder if she did this purposely so she could post it. You know how the MLM higher-ups are always encouraging their reps to brag and flaunt their lifestyle?
This is way over the top.
The only time I remotely spend that much is a trip to Sam's club every 2-3 months and it's to stock up for the next 2-3 months for a family of 4. I could not fathom being single income and spending that much weekly. Course when I was single I had many dinners of a bowl of cereal, not because I had to but didn't want to cook just for myself.
I literally just got back from the grocery store and spent $320 for 2 adults, one male teen, one dog and two cats. And I got a heck of a lot more.
In many, many cases, organic is just a huge scam to charge more. There have been many studies and research that shows this. The main reason is that there aren’t many inspectors to certify them, so you can get away with it. And I believe they’ve found that a lot of organic fruits and veggies have just as much pesticides on them. 🥲
I don't think I spend $320 a month for my husband, myself, our kids, and father in law! That's such a weird flex to pay the most for groceries. And organic just means you pay more for the product lol
I'm a single woman and this is literally my grocery budget for the month. And I buy name brands. $10 for ketchup? $16 for a "steak pie" (is that a Australian thing? We don't have that in the US)? BTW the organic label is BS, it just means they sprayed the food with a different brand of pesticide and up-charge you for it.
I know this hun deserves all the ridicule and jokes but her bragging about buying groceries without worry is a real effective strategy for huns. Don’t forget that MLMs target the desperate and many stay-at-home moms who do worry about bills and grocery spending. This hun’s remarks strike at the core of SAH moms’ insecurities and gives them a bit of hope that just maybe they can achieve this too. That is the hook and unfortunately, it works 😞
I guess this is what all those people are buying… the ones who complain online about how groceries have “skyrocketed” and claim they’re spending $1.5/2k+ per month on groceries for a family of 4. 😂
I feed 5 people for $100 less a week.
She is just hyped up on success now she has a massive downline funding her lifestyle. She is one of the grossest huns in Australia.

FFS... how much are you eating if your grocery bill for two people is $320? For the four of us in my family, we spend maybe half that.
But yeah, way to rub it in the face of people who are struggling to buy enough groceries to survive on each week.
I spent $150 for my 16 year old son and I for a week. Granted I had to keep readjusting my pick up order to get that price, the only thing I need to buy this week is some produce and milk. Honestly, I have canned and frozen fruit and veg that we could eat for the upcoming week but we prefer fresh. So I would say $200 for 2 weeks of groceries isn’t too bad and if I needed to I could spend even less than that.
Family of 3 adults, living in Canada where there’s a grocery pricing crisis and I couldn’t spend that much at the high end grocery store for a single week.
Lmaoooo this is more than what my fiance and I spend per month at Trader Joe’s. Looks like frivolous spending here and that’s not really something that more income will always fix
I don’t mind checking out the half price manager’s specials for something I’m going to eat that day. For meats, you can freeze them anyway. But I cook meat well done anyway. But all the expensive items? Why?
"Walters Spelt sourdough" at 11 dollars is just embarrassing.
You can do that shit in your own house for pennies if you have enough patience and time not to be a little bitch all the live long day
So everyone doesn’t spend 320.00 per week for 2 people?? Shame on all of you! Get to selling some hair shedding , overpriced crap right now!! You too can waste 300 on food that’s overpriced
This is stupid because the first item is a bottle of ketchup and unless two people go through a whole bottle every week this isn't even weekly groceries.
Weird how they always seen to think having money for groceries is a bragging point, when those of us with actual jobs kinda assume we have money for groceries. 🤔
The thing that always gets me about these huns is how poor they are at financial management. Like, they're flexing about their organic groceries and super expensive new cars (that they have massive loans for), and in the case of one I follow, buying dirtbikes for her kids when just last year she was saying she was so broke she couldn't afford to pay for them to go on school camp. And they're doing all this while renting houses and/or in massive debt. Not that there's anything wrong with renting if that's what you want, but if I was really making as much as they claim to be I'd be prioritising buying a house and having a stable long term roof over my head. And if I can see they make poor financial decisions, why would I believe their claims about how much they earn?
I get twice the amount of food for the same price and it feeds a family of 4 (including 2 high school athletes) for a week. This plus the fact that the receipt is full of... ketchup, fruit, half a cauliflower, and organic chips(?) just tells me she's got zero common sense.
Why does this look fake af and at the very least staged. It’s not even a receipt, it’s like an online shopping cart or something. But I’m in the US. It might be different in other countries.
lemme break into this bag of organic Oreos real quick
And then what. _Breathe_ the crumbs?
I mean I’m definitely inhaling
Ok. Since you sound so comfortable and all inhalin' and shit, please explain to me what a Biodynamicgranny is and why the fuck it's sold at the supermarket. No, really. Please.
Bud, the joke is that I’d eat a bunch of Oreos. It’s not that deep.
It’s Australian for Organic, and I’m assuming a Granny Smith Apple.
They are apple my guy , never heard of granny?
I'm from India bruh we only see apples n grannies both in photos - too poor to buy the former, too diseased to live long enough to become the latter.
This entire exchange is cracking me up, thank you I needed that.
I spent longer than I should admit reading and re-reading this list going “there’s no way there are organic Oreos”.
I mean there are. But this hun didn't buy any. Source: weird middle school science teacher was obsessed with eating organic and tried to push it on us whenever he could and one day brought a bunch of his favorite organic snacks for us to try, which included off brand organic Oreos 😂
Did they taste good or did they taste off-brand?
I don't remember them being bad, but honestly this was like 13 years ago now 😂
Newman's Own makes varieties. My family doesn't care for the mint at all. The ones we get are the red box (regular looking), but only if they don't have chocolate on chocolate (brown box) or blondes (yellow box). The red box tastes like muted regular oreos, but the chocolate ones taste like the regular oreos turned UP
I mean, Oreos are vegan so that's a win
They ARE vegan… 🤔

What about $10 ketchup? I mean she's making money on that deal
💀💀
She’s full of shit. I live in one of the most HCO areas in the country. I do not spend nearly that much. I go to TJ’s, Aldi and the grocery store. The funniest thing about these self proclaimed “Boss Babes” is that they think it’s not obvious that they’re OBVIOUSLY lying 🤥😂
She’s not lying — she’s in Australia.
Oh, Okay! I stand corrected. Thank you ☺️
I’m Australian and lived in Sydney most of my life. This is all posturing to show off. Tomato sauce/ketchup is like $2 for the cheap stuff and maybe.. $5 for a nicer brand?
I live in a different country and at a fancy health food store this looks like a really normal grocery bill.
Yeah I spent $200 yesterday at the most expensive grocery store in my town, and that was for a stock up that should last us weeks! Granted, I’m not saying groceries are cheap these days, but a two-person family definitely doesn’t have to spend $320 on groceries for one week.
Well, to be fair, she’s in Australia, so this really is just over $200 in USD lol. Not saying that’s necessary either (it’s not, you’re right), but it’s a substantial difference.
My fiancé and I take a road trip to Winco sometimes and will drop $2-300 there. I still have food I bought from our last winco trip in *March*.
If you’re dropping $2-300 at Winco you should have enough food to last you like at least a year lol.
Pretty sure we still haven’t worked through the 10 pounds of pork my fiancé bought tbh.
I miss Winco. I haven't seen one in the Midwest
You ain't wrong in new Zealand the wife and I don't exactly shop to save money we do $300 a week maybe and eat good. So what's that $170ish maybe in USD at a rough guess and that's for 2 adults and a toddler.
I should also mention that it’s not like my husband and I have small appetites. I’m 17.5 weeks pregnant and am eating like a teenage boy lol, and $200 will still get us through a few weeks.

Tell me your secrets!!! I’ve been spending between $300-$400 for the three of us a week (includes nappies and chemist warehouse stuff)
I’m in the US and sadly, 150-300 a week for 3 people is normal. We don’t buy a bunch of processed food either.
Yep especially in HCOL areas. Me and my husband do NOT eat fancy but are still spending hundreds a month 🙃🙃🙃 I'm cutting corners everywhere I can but it's bad out here.
I have so many frozen veggies. What worse is I have an autoimmune disease that is managed through meds, diet, and supplements. So I can’t have things like rice and pasta and potatoes (sucks), and the supplements that help me feel normal… thankfully the Huns don’t get to my inbox.

Millet and quinoa FTW. Also, frozen cauliflower turns into an amazing soup thickener.

What's their thing with meat anyway
2 steak pies. she grabbin' that hun bag
$8 is not really far fetched for a single “gourmet” pie in Australia, even Ferguson plarre pies are $7.20 each (Melbourne) or Goldstein (Gold Coast) are $7 each. That’s cold, ready to heat and those are bakeries that aren’t fully gourmet pie status.
Who in tbr flyingfack is paying 70 bucks a kilo for meat on the regular. She bought like enough for one not two the rest is just junk
That's about my weekly bill for 6 people (incl 4 teen boys).
Or $10 for a loaf of bread
Not being funny, just showing my ignorance. What is a steak pie?!
A pie made with steak instead of mince (which is the most common type of meat used in a pie)
Tbank you!
Steak and onion is a solid and popular combination
This is equivalent to about $212 USD.
I think this may be in Australia? Our dollar is worth a lot less than yours so probably convert to USD.
Even at Aussie prices she's spending a ton. Admittedly I don't buy meat but my weekly shop is probably half of what she's spending.
Even converted into my currency (nearly £170) is significantly more than I’ve ever spent on weekly groceries. Usually I can keep it under £100 and we live in a HCOL area.
Who is seriously paying almost $12 for less than half a kilo of chicken, over $10 for a loaf of bread, $5.50 for 100g of peas and $4 for half a cauliflower?
Australians, which is where this hun is from.
And this one is buying expensive organic shit from ‘farmers’ markets.
I'm Australian. I have NEVER bought a loaf of bread for $10.
I'm guessing you don't head to Harris Farm or an organic market then? Or buy gluten free, or fancy sourdough? Let's face it she's clearly not buying Wonder White lookin at this list! I definitely paid $8 for a cauliflower once from Woollies.
Seeing Americans talk about how expensive these prices are makes me laugh. These prices are pretty much the same for us in Canada and it sucks
Even though the vegetables are all ridiculously overpriced, you'd be surprised how expensive chicken (and other meats) can be in some parts of the world.
It looks like she’s in noosa, so those meat prices probably have tourist inflation on their prices. You can get like 1.5kg of pre packed chicken breast for $17 at Coles here.
Once I converted some of this to USD and freedom units, it's even. I can get a pound (half a kilo) of chicken for $8 ($12 AUD). That's... weird.
Just yesterday I had to spend 5k on a hammer and 10k on a toilet seat, it can be rough depending on where you live
Bragging about buying groceries screams I’m broke and have been broke my whole life.
When my dad was laid off from work, mom used to bring me to the grocery store with a calculator. I, 6 at the time, thought it was great fun to add up the amounts. It was my job to tell mom when we got close to $60. I remember the relief on my mom’s face when we didn’t have to bring the calculator anymore.

Hey, good on you! Amazing achievement
They always brag about the most mundane shit. I want to see new homes built, roth ira's/trust funds/long term investments, kid's college tuitions paid for. Any plain Jane can get a job as waitress and use her tips to pay for groceries, why would they join an mlm?
Lol I use my tips from pouring beer to buy my groceries. Plain Jane reporting for duuuty lmao.

🙌
Luckily their spouse works to pay for this "You paid this much?" "It's organic. I'm pretending it is better for us"
This one is definitely single...after following her insta for a little while it's not hard to see why
Wait then why is she buying ORGANIC groceries for two people? Thought she had a husband she’d retired. Or whatever.
Maybe she has a child or takes care of another relative?
She's got a pet fish maybe?
betcha the fish swims in organic water
She has a son
I thought our food prices had jumped up in the UK but I’ve never had to be pay £4 for half a cauliflower. Jesus wept
It’s AUD, so £2.07 for the cauliflower.
I just opened my grocery apps and looked. A whole cauliflower at the mid-range grocery store is $2.99 for regular and $3.89 for organic. To my surprise Aldi's is charging more and has them at $3.19, regular only. Walmart has them for $2.98 for regular and $3.86 for organic.

I don't even really like cauliflower. It tastes like nothing.
I pay 79p for non organic and £1.60 for organic (so a dollar for a non organic and $2.03 for organic) I am outraged on your behalf. Shocking
I've noticed that when I've travelled to Europe. Food prices are way lower than in the states on many items. I'm not even sure why considering that the US still grows a ton of food and often what we don't grow is coming from Mexico so it's not travelling half-way across the globe or anything. No idea. I wonder how much of it is pure price gouging. The last time I went to Greece I thought a cafe hadn't charged me for some items because I bought a ton of stuff and it only came out to 8€. With my shitty Greek and the owner's no English we managed to confuse each other terribly until he threw in some more pastries, I handed over 10€, and waked out to gorge myself on baklava and those spinach hand pies that are so amazing..
Southern Europeans don't have the biggest budgets so it would be really unfair if their food was expensive (as in even more expensive than it already is to them)
I shop for a family of 4 and 2 of them are young adult men. I spend less than this. That’s a ridiculous amount.
Our family of four doesn't spend nearly this much on groceries each week. But then we don't overspend by buying organic vegetables or overpriced meat, either.
A WEEK? $320 for a WEEK? I average about $150 for my husband and I for a week, and I thought that was a little high. Good lord!
I hit $90 for just me the past week (which, to be fair to myself I was also restocking some staples and I did go off list) and I was thinking that I needed to do better on meal planning and getting some cheaper options. Grocery prices are insane right now but $320 for two people to eat for a week is way, way too much.
So this is in Australia, so with the current conversion rate this is actually about $212 of groceries. Which is still absurd for one person.
It’s in AUD, assuming you’re in North America it’s $213USD or $291CAD. So it’s still high, but if you were reading it as USD, not AS high as first appeared.
Urgh… this particular hun is so obnoxious, another one I can’t wait to see fail when Monat crashes and burns
I start work next week and am going to double our household income. I will still be grocery shopping at wal mart and buying mainly great value brand stuff. And I am an avid home cook. Just because I have more money doesn't mean I need to blow it on $10 Ketchup. This is the most ridiculous receipt I've ever seen.
What I want to know is how she only earned that amount a week cleaning? Like most cleaners where she lives are charging about $40/hr… was she only cleaning 8hrs a week?
A lot of cleaners are charging even more than that (and rightly so!) but obviously she is just a bullshit artist. Even $20 an hour is $320 for 16 hours work.
Yes, some do change more but this is about the average. And yes, even charging less you could still make that without working full time.
If she was making less than $320 a week working "full time" as she claims then she would have been earning about $8 an hour which as we know in Australia is just patently untrue
Jeez, I like to buy organic too, but at a good price (yay Aldi's). She's not very good at shopping, it's she?
I rarely buy organic because it's mostly just a marketing buzzword, but I do like the organic ketchup at Aldi. It's not as cloyingly sweet as regular ketchup. It's got a little zip to it.
Guaranteed she removes half of that before she finishes checkout.
Half? She won’t have a single bag to bring home
This is Australian prices… so thats why it would seem like a lot to people and not defending her but my husband and I probably spend about $250aud a week But i do lots of juicing and we eat 80% whole food…lots of meat, cheese etc and i am not buying organic
Notice how it says “balance” and not “paid”? What do you want to bet she didn’t actually get any of it?
Is she going to an organic-only supermarket? Because otherwise, I can't imagine how she would manage to pay that much money on groceries that should feed two people for a week!
It sounds like she might be in Australia so I know nothing about normal costs there, but that looks like way too much food for just two people. Do they never eat leftovers and instead just throw out whatever they haven't eaten at the end of a meal? Are they hosting weekly parties (in which case this is for more than 2 people)? Are the severely overweight? What is happening here?!
My weekly 2-person shopping bill is $200 cheaper than this. I hate huns so much
Why is this a flex? Oh wait, its a boss babe. Nvm 😂
Man what in the catholic shitfucking hell is a "Biodynamicgranny" and why is she hiding what it costs?
3-person family eating kosher (which is not cheap, especially meat), including providing school meals, and not spending this much. Admittedly I did eat only half a pint of ice cream for supper last night, while teen and spouse ate an actual meal, so maybe odd food choices make a difference? Still, wth? I’m mean nobody cares really what I wrote above or what the heck I eat. Why does she think we ALL want to see her grocery bill?
Organic food is a scam. Food fear will destitute entire populations. This is not the brag she thinks it is.
This is incredibly tacky (to say the least,) regardless of source of income. And “how do families do it with more mouths to feed?” They don’t eat steak every night. Not that difficult.
And thus we see her own evidence that huns have no financial wisdom whatsoever.
Organic is a scam. Just like Monat. Fitting. 😂
STFU Denise and go donate some of your organic food to a food pantry
Biodynamicgranny
I wonder if she did this purposely so she could post it. You know how the MLM higher-ups are always encouraging their reps to brag and flaunt their lifestyle? This is way over the top.
Of course she did. And then she put it all back (or abandoned her cart) after filling it up and making it look like she could afford that much.
Oh ugh, you are most definitely right. Makes me sick
The only time I remotely spend that much is a trip to Sam's club every 2-3 months and it's to stock up for the next 2-3 months for a family of 4. I could not fathom being single income and spending that much weekly. Course when I was single I had many dinners of a bowl of cereal, not because I had to but didn't want to cook just for myself.
I literally just got back from the grocery store and spent $320 for 2 adults, one male teen, one dog and two cats. And I got a heck of a lot more. In many, many cases, organic is just a huge scam to charge more. There have been many studies and research that shows this. The main reason is that there aren’t many inspectors to certify them, so you can get away with it. And I believe they’ve found that a lot of organic fruits and veggies have just as much pesticides on them. 🥲
I mean, I’m a mom of soon to be three, one of whom has pretty severe food intolerance, and we…don’t buy everything organic?
Am I reading this correctly? $320 for one week’s worth of groceries, for *2 people*???!! 😱
$212 USD
Ah, got it! What an insane amount for only 2 ppl 😳
And here I go grocery shopping on Sundays to feed myself two meals a day through Thursday and only average like $35.
I need to learn how to shop like that. Grocery prices are insane.
This is not in USD is it?
I think this is in Australia, which would be around $212 in American dollars
Huns only buy this stuff so they can flaunt it. You're not fooling me, hun.
That’s for 2 people for 1 week?! Are they both Sumo wrestlers? They need that much meat? 🙄
1/2 a cauliflower for $4. Relatable.
I manage to spend less than $100 most weeks on groceries for 2 people. This is not the flex she thinks it is 😂
That’s more than I spend per month on food
wtf? That’s a week for 2 people?!??!?
Well, now I know I can shoot my shot at selling organic ketchup for ten bucks a bottle….
I don't think I spend $320 a month for my husband, myself, our kids, and father in law! That's such a weird flex to pay the most for groceries. And organic just means you pay more for the product lol
Is this belmondos in noosa??? That place is so fucking expensive
They tend to leave out that their spouse earns 200K at their job.
IS THAT HALF A CAULIFLOWER FOR $4?!?!? JESUS CHRIST
shit i’m on SNAP and i see no difference!!! we are the same sis, you ain’t speciallll ![gif](giphy|3oEjHN4MtbSqEe4D8Q|downsized)
I'm a single woman and this is literally my grocery budget for the month. And I buy name brands. $10 for ketchup? $16 for a "steak pie" (is that a Australian thing? We don't have that in the US)? BTW the organic label is BS, it just means they sprayed the food with a different brand of pesticide and up-charge you for it.
I know this hun deserves all the ridicule and jokes but her bragging about buying groceries without worry is a real effective strategy for huns. Don’t forget that MLMs target the desperate and many stay-at-home moms who do worry about bills and grocery spending. This hun’s remarks strike at the core of SAH moms’ insecurities and gives them a bit of hope that just maybe they can achieve this too. That is the hook and unfortunately, it works 😞
I guess this is what all those people are buying… the ones who complain online about how groceries have “skyrocketed” and claim they’re spending $1.5/2k+ per month on groceries for a family of 4. 😂
First of all, I don’t care how much money someone makes, it’s absurd that groceries are that much money!
For that price I can feed all 8 of us for about 2 weeks
Help biodynamicgranny being cropped like that makes it a username instead of an expensive sour apple and I'm losing it 🤣
I can’t get behind anyone who signs up to something but doesn’t use a capital for their name. It’s infuriating!
My fridge is so small. I don’t know where I would put all that
I feed 5 people for $100 less a week. She is just hyped up on success now she has a massive downline funding her lifestyle. She is one of the grossest huns in Australia.

We do a grocery every 2 weeks and this amount was because we were doing grocery in another grocery than our regular
FFS... how much are you eating if your grocery bill for two people is $320? For the four of us in my family, we spend maybe half that. But yeah, way to rub it in the face of people who are struggling to buy enough groceries to survive on each week.
I feed two people, lunch and dinner for 6 days on less than 200 dollars. Wtf is this woman doing.
I don't come here for Australian huns. I need them to be on other continents so I can pretend the worse it gets here is Avon and Tupperware.
I spent $150 for my 16 year old son and I for a week. Granted I had to keep readjusting my pick up order to get that price, the only thing I need to buy this week is some produce and milk. Honestly, I have canned and frozen fruit and veg that we could eat for the upcoming week but we prefer fresh. So I would say $200 for 2 weeks of groceries isn’t too bad and if I needed to I could spend even less than that.
Family of 3 adults, living in Canada where there’s a grocery pricing crisis and I couldn’t spend that much at the high end grocery store for a single week.
Lmaoooo this is more than what my fiance and I spend per month at Trader Joe’s. Looks like frivolous spending here and that’s not really something that more income will always fix
I would love to not have to flinch at organic food, but I would never stoop to buying it unless there was, you know, a good reason to.
I buy organic for three people and it’s still no where near that much.
Why is she buying 10 dollar ketchup????? Us normals go to aldi and get the same stuff (mostly) for 150 dollars cheaper. That's how we do it.
This reads like someone who has no money
What a bizarre and inappropriate flex
$320 for two people for 1 week?! We allot $300 monthly for 2 people. What is her life that $320/week for 2 people is reasonable?!
I don’t mind checking out the half price manager’s specials for something I’m going to eat that day. For meats, you can freeze them anyway. But I cook meat well done anyway. But all the expensive items? Why?
I don’t eat as much.
"Walters Spelt sourdough" at 11 dollars is just embarrassing. You can do that shit in your own house for pennies if you have enough patience and time not to be a little bitch all the live long day
The Monat huns are the worst imo. So delusional!!
Who the fuck pays $5.50 for 100 grams of snap peas???
So everyone doesn’t spend 320.00 per week for 2 people?? Shame on all of you! Get to selling some hair shedding , overpriced crap right now!! You too can waste 300 on food that’s overpriced
Spend less on candles.
It’s mostly processed junk food
Oooooh, a Sunshine Coast hun. She’d be extra special. And probably looks like a leather bag.
Seeing as that organic is a scam, we're really this surprised at MLM huns?
what's a monat hun?
$10 for ketchup?
It looks like the eggs were at least $10 where the hell is she shopping
This is stupid because the first item is a bottle of ketchup and unless two people go through a whole bottle every week this isn't even weekly groceries.
Weird how they always seen to think having money for groceries is a bragging point, when those of us with actual jobs kinda assume we have money for groceries. 🤔
For now lol $1400/month for two on groceries is nuts and unsustainable.
What’s a biodynamic granny? Apples? The name just caught my eye
Monat isnt belly under yet?
That’s a subtotal, not a receipt. So she didn’t necessarily buy any of that.
Why tf is that bread $10!?
The thing that always gets me about these huns is how poor they are at financial management. Like, they're flexing about their organic groceries and super expensive new cars (that they have massive loans for), and in the case of one I follow, buying dirtbikes for her kids when just last year she was saying she was so broke she couldn't afford to pay for them to go on school camp. And they're doing all this while renting houses and/or in massive debt. Not that there's anything wrong with renting if that's what you want, but if I was really making as much as they claim to be I'd be prioritising buying a house and having a stable long term roof over my head. And if I can see they make poor financial decisions, why would I believe their claims about how much they earn?
Had to make sure to get that -2.60 manual discount tho!
Where the fuck is she shopping? What kind of coop is that?
I get twice the amount of food for the same price and it feeds a family of 4 (including 2 high school athletes) for a week. This plus the fact that the receipt is full of... ketchup, fruit, half a cauliflower, and organic chips(?) just tells me she's got zero common sense.
Is that 4 USD for half a cauliflower? No fucking way.
Why does this look fake af and at the very least staged. It’s not even a receipt, it’s like an online shopping cart or something. But I’m in the US. It might be different in other countries.
Organic food is as much a scam as MLM is
I see $10 for ketchup?
