    Just to add about groceries, yes this can definitely be improved upon, I am going to try Aldi - it is further to drive but I am hoping the saving will be worth it (I am planning to go for a month and compare to my last months food bills).

    Broadband providers are limited here (problems with living more rural I guess) but I am going to call current provider tomorrow and see what there best price is and look around for alternatives. We don’t currently have Netflix etc we have tried it in the past but cancelled it.

    Don't get blind sided by the fact you live rurally.
    You have at least ADSL Broadband. This means any company except Virgin can offer you the same identical broadband. This means you should not be paying more than £20/month (for ADSL Broadband, no TV and no free calls included) . If you are still confused about this, let me know :) If you are paying for fibre instead of ADSL, then you don't live in the middle of nowhere at all ;) Happy to help further.

    I think the best piece of advice I could give is: You need to move! Your car and LPG costs are killing you. Is it feasible at all to move closer to work? You're burning up several hundred pounds a month in these two areas alone.
