What size food for what size snake?

How does one know what size food they should be feeding a snake and at what point should you be choosing to go up a food size?

We've got a juvenile olive python, he has never been a problem feeder - he loves his mice.

When we got him - the pet shop guys said 2 weaner mice a week - does that mean 2 mice in one feeding per week - or feed him one mouse twice a week?

We've had him for a month now and have been feeding him one mouse twice a week which always disapears quickly.

I'm going back to the shop to buy him more food today - and was wondering what I should be buying?
