How much is your weekly budget?

Options
Hi all,

Really interested to know how much you spend per week on average. I know it might be a difficult one to poll as it depends on family size etc but it will give a general idea maybe?

We still seem to end up quite low on cash each month and I think we prob spend too much each week - about £200.....

Include groceries, petrol, clothes, going out but not monthly bills.

    that's difficult as many folks will have different budget pots for some of these.

    ie. one for petrol, one for food, one for clothes, one for entertainment etc


    better starting with how much income/money you have coming in and then allocate a budget for each

    for many, clothes and ents are not a neccessity and will come lower down the pecking order.
