In despair at how much I spend on food

I think the point about the 'gadgets' is to try to find low cost ways of cooking rather than a main oven or buying in prepared foods. It would help if we could have more details of what makes up the £60 per week. 

Yes. I'm pleased it cheered you up having a laugh about the tinned fish and spicy food suggestions, although I'm sure hey were well intentioned. Have any suggestions been helpful? What are you spending the money on?  Do you want us to help cut down the spending? Many people I know are spending less due to just visiting one shop to minimise queuing, no impulse buys/browsing etc.
