4-6 litres a week at a guess. All I know is that it is so damn expensive thats for sure.

Our's is around 6L a week, used by 4 of us.  I buy 2 x 3L in my shop, which is on a Monday, and sometimes by Saturday I'm having to buy another 2L to last us til the next shop.

 

It's become less since Gia stopped having bottles before her sleeps.  We'd go through at least 8L a week then.

In a week, hmm, we probably go through 8L? Maybe less, sometimes more if I do any baking / cooking that requires it. Otherwise it goes on coffee, milo, cereal etc and DD is a milk monster too - but I'm quite happy for her to have as much milk as she likes really. ]]> Sun, 03 Aug 2008 21:14:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19749&PID=458509&title=random-milk-question#458509 <![CDATA[Random Milk Question : We go through about 1L of normal...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19749&PID=458220&title=random-milk-question#458220 Author: minik8e

We go through about 1L of normal milk and 2L of lactose free milk. DF only uses the normal milk for his coffee, and occasionally a bowl of cornflakes, whereas the lactose free milk is for my coffees plus any cooking we do - mashed spuds etc. When I was a kid we used to go through between 2-3L a day - that's 2 adults and 2 kids using it, we used to drink it by the bucketful.]]> Sun, 03 Aug 2008 16:26:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19749&PID=458220&title=random-milk-question#458220 <![CDATA[Random Milk Question : Basically none!!

We get soo many comments from various people at the grocery shop....not to mention it costs us somewhere around $40.00 a week, we tried cutting down but it didn't work. It is all we have in ways of bought drinks though, other than that it's water (ooh I guess not as we have coffed, tes, milo etc)

Wholey this is going to be a shocker then.

We have 4 people drinking milk in our house and at the groceries I buy 5 3L's blue for boys and DH and 2 3L's yellow for me.....21L's a week (and sometimes I have to buy and extra 2L from dairy to see us through ).

I think we should invest in our own dairy cow

We gothrough about 8L a week. DD1 loves her milk and I drink a couple of glasses a day. We have porridge most mornings and do quite a bit of baking during the week (pikelets are a fave at least once a week) as well as milos, coffee for DH, smoothies etc.
I buy 3x 2L bottles at my weekly shop and always have to top up at least once during the week.]]> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 21:51:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19749&PID=457777&title=random-milk-question#457777 <![CDATA[Random Milk Question : a litre a day roughly.

How much cows milk do you go thru from one grocery shop to the next?

This shop just gone, I got a 3 litre bottle and then on Tuesday I had to buy another 2 litres and then yesterday I brought another litre and that lasted a day!

We did the groceries last night and I got another 3 litre and it's going to be finished by Monday I reckon.

There are only 3 of us who drink it too...

We use it for Porridge, Coffee, Smoothies and Milo's... Occasionally in the weekends we have Pancakes and I'll do some baking.. it's getting ridiculous.. maybe I should start putting coke in my coffee, it's cheaper than milk! ]]> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 19:52:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19749&PID=457515&title=random-milk-question#457515
