Hello everyone.
Been looking at these forums for a few weeks now and this is my first post so there will be no fancy bits until I get the hang of it!
Why not try the following suggestion and see how much you can save.
I regularly shop at Morrisons or Tesco Online. Three weeks ago I went to Aldi because I was strapped. Later that evening I went onto Tesco.com and did a "dummy" shop out of curiosity to see how much I had saved. Taking "like for like" i.e. Aldi unknown brand vs Tesco value, I managed to save over £15!. I did this again the following week and saved £16+. For 2 adults and 2 kids under 5, that's about £800+ per year - quite a chunk of our annual GROSS income of £15k. See how you go on - it's Aldi for me now!Decluttering junk and debt in 2016
Debts - Vanquis £3500 1/1/16; DFD - when I'm dead with £100,000,000+ interest :eek: UPDATED Feb 2016 £2739.80; DFD June 2016 :j
Next - £1500 1/1/16 DFD about 10 years time. UPDATED Feb 2016 £1371.16; DFD July 2016 :j
THE GOAL IS TO HAVE NO DEBT BY THE END OF 20160 -
I would love to shave something off my grocery list. I try every week, but still find it impossible to get under £40 a week for myself and DS. I am a widow. I have too many other people to pay. Would love to know how to shave my budget even a small bit. I use value products, and recipes in this forum.:money: Where now?Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money but you can't get more time0
