If you're buying everything at co-op then you certainly would be spending $150 on 6 dinners. That store is great for fresh produce and certain proteins, but purchasing all your groceries at that store is going to bloat your grocery budget substantially. Even sale prices are rarely better than most of the other stores.
By limiting Co-op purchases to only fruit and vegetables and filling the gaps at places like superstore, walmart and costco, our family weekly grocery budget has dropped almost 20%.
