was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on how much my family could realistically live off a month?

this month i have spent around £170 on me, OH, and DD (almost 3)

i know i cant drop drastically all at once, but was wondering if anyone else was in a silimar situation and how much they budgeted?

thanks
