alright me and some friends are going to pro camp this summer in whistler and I will need for for both breakfast and supper for about 16 days.

i eat about what an average person eats i guess, so for those with experiance how much should i be looking at pricewise for 2 weeks of food at a grocery store?

depends on what you eat but i would say anywhere from 100 to 200 bucks. just plan for spending more so you dont run out of money and have to eat saltines all week.

if you buy your groceries in whistler, multiply what it costs in america times two.

if you shop wise, i bet you could get er done for around 100 to 150.

when i am out in breck for a week, we feed 10 people, every meal(no eating out) for 600$ for a week, so that works out to be 60$ a person, just be smart and dont buy 4$ bottles of orange juice, and that sort of stuff.

o yeah, mac and cheese will be your best friend, also eggs are a great breakfast,  get some ground beef, and make sloppy joe's, spaghetti, will fill you up, and isnt very expensive...

the best advice is bring a backpack with some PBand J sandwiches for lunch, dont pay ski area prices for an mtn food.
