You've got £10 in for clothes, can you make do with what you've got for a few months? And I imagine you'll find once you start meal planning and shopping more carefully there will be a £or two more you can save there eventually.

I don't need new clothes, it's just in there for when i see bargains at the charity shop. I'm going to reduce it to £5 and that'll be it done then.0 -

Not until next August unfortunately.0 -
August 2014?
And the lowest you can reduce it to, is £58-50?0 -
Oh no this August, I forgot where we were then.0

So 6 months?
Well, my advice is, in August, dump Sky completely, and go Freeview/Freesat.0 -
The sky bill is internet and phone too. Is freesat internet?0

Although I think the milk's off because my coffee tastes funny so I'm going to have to pop to the shop today after all.

I usually buy a 6 pack of the UHT milk once a month, I should have added it on to my shopping list. I'll add it on next week.0
