What is something that is on your grocery list every single week?

I can really only think of three things that come up every week.

Bananas- ds17 is a distance runner and eats a lot of bananas.

Cheese - it may be shredded, sliced, or block but always cheese

Coffee - because coffee

We buy fruits, veggies, meat, and snacks every week but they alternate.
 
I only buy items which are on sale, but the most frequent item is probably cheese. Shredded for sure any time it’s on sale, sliced if shredded isn’t on sale, and some weeks more unusual options like cream cheese or ricotta. Occasionally there will be a week or two when cheese isn’t on sale, so I try to buy enough when it is to get through those weeks.
 
I shop several times a week; stopping in after work for whatever we need, when we need it. Regular items that we are never without are milk, eggs, cheeses, olive oil, yogurt, coffee, crackers, several kinds of fresh fruit, chocolate bars and some type of salty snack. Everything else is more hit and miss or purchased for specific events/recipes.
 
There are things that would be a weekly purchase if I wasn't buying them in large packages at Sam's, like eggs, butter, half-n-half, frozen waffles, and nuts.

Carrots. The boy LOVES carrots, and he'll happily munch on a whole, raw carrot as an after school snack. DD30 usually takes carrot and celery sticks in her lunch almost every day.
Cheese- shredded and sliced.
Bananas. Ditto for the 7yo, and DH usually takes a banana for lunch every day.
Milk. DH has cold cereal for breakfast every morning and the 7yo drinks a glass or two a day, in addition to having it on cereal/oatmeal a couple of mornings a week.
 
Lemons - I buy two every week.
Milk & eggs most weeks.
We (try) to buy beer/wine & booze in bulk just so we don't have to go make a run for it every week - so monthly or so there.
spinach/salad stuff
cheese
 
Milk, eggs, bread, potatos, carrots, onions, garlic, tomatos, pasta, fruit, frozen spinach and broccoli, butter, cheddar or swiss.

Those are the constants. Buy them every time unless I’m just popping in to pick up something for dinner.
