So apparently the shop was: 2L milk, 2L orange juice, 2 ready meals, loaf of bread, dryer sheets, toilet paper, washing liquid, cling film, and some toy soldiers

I'm not sure what that would add up to in Brazil (going by your instance), but I'd guess that shop would cost me around £50 in today's money, which is roughly in line with the amount in the OP (and would have probably been close to half that a couple of years ago)

Looks like the amount in the OP concerts to about 350 Real, but I'm not sure what sort of spending power that has

That's about a week of minimum wage. If I'm not too far off in my price estimation I think the same groceries would cost half that much here.
