What to do?

thanks chev

My salary is around 22 basic, works out more due to the night bonus and annual bonus

anyway, i seem to find it hard to save/limit my spending


My rent is 300/month - no bills , company house, so the money I get paid is after tax/rent - 1300 or so


Bills for the month
________________
Gym: 46
Phone: 40
BT: 10
O2 broadband: 10
Food: 300-400

so if we said 506 max to pay out, leaves me with around 700-800 after paying bills and rent,


how much should I pay back for my debts each month?


Thanks

I nearly fell off my chair when I saw that you spend £300-400 a month on food. If you live on your own you should certainly be able to get that down - try shopping in places like Lidl - I have just done my monthly shop there and the bill came to £21.20 and now my freezer and veg box are full again:D

Agree with another poster - go over to Oldstyle Moneysaving and find out about meal planning, grocery challenges etc.
