How do I replace a tiny amount of grout on a tile floor?

While vacuuming the kitchen floor a small amount of grout came out between two floor tiles (about two inches). Can I buy just a small amount of grout to replace it or use something else? The floor is only 6 years old.

Betty...Check Repair Tile Grout - Lowe's on the internet or talk with them. Never done myself but these are pretty easy instructions. Good luck!
Just brush away the missing grout and make sure it's clean and dry and add a small amount of grout and apply like normal.
I don't think you can buy a "small" amount of grout. If you can go for it. Just make sure the groove is clean of any loose debri. With a 6 year old floor something caused the grout to loosen. In a pinch I have used no shrink drywall compound and sealed it with clear nail polish. That you can buy in small containers. Caulk can also work.
You could use a grout tube and just repair the part that crumbled a bit
Yes, it's an easy DIY. Remove the loose grout and apply the new. Wipe and let dry.
