I just thought it was neat that this blog placed the pictures in descending order of weekly expenditures.

  • This is really interesting. It's amazing to see how much and what types of food people buy. Although, I don't relate to the US picture at all, I'm sure I have a few friends who it spot on for. I would love to see more photographs of various countries and cultures, even the differences within a county by region would be interesting.
