  • Are you sure this is only £80 per month or do you mean per week? If it really is per month then that is amazing!

    No £80 per month - we buy cheap supermarket branded items and mainly things we can reheat and eat later on - we bulk buy laundry and toiletries stuff at cheap pound shops and the quality is just as good. Daughters clothes are bought at car boots or second hand shops and Nappies are cheapest brands using money off vouchers whenever possible. We don't eat three course meals -just what we need! And Mother in law makes us two cooked full meals a week so we are lucky to have her!

    WOW that is amazing! Well done!

    I manage on about £150-200 a month for household expenses for 5 of us, but that doesn't include clothes. Maybe you should give us some tips :)
