  • I dont know how many phones 50 is for. You can probably get this down by careful shopping around. Would it work out cheaper by buying a phone outright and getting a cheap sim only contract?

    I do a weekly online shop with Tesco and get it delivered. I make a meal plan every week and stick to it, it was hard at first. I feed a family of 5/6 for £50/60 a week that includes nappies wet wipes, toilet rolls etc. Just check your freezer and cupboards and go from there. I was massive takeaway fan but I now have a Fakeaway on a friday and saturday night. You can do this, it just takes a little bit of organisation and determination. Best of luck xx

    That's not a very helpful comment to be honest, but you don't know my situation, i would really really struggle carrying that amount of shopping up the stairs. But, i might go to Aldi, my Wife said she is willing to help, even though she has her own reasons for struggling with that sort of thing.

    Fair enough, it was probably a bit sharp, if so i apologise. But you are in a financial emergency and things are going to have to change, your current way of doing things isnt going to cut it. That was the point i was somewhat clumsily trying to make.
