I spend around £100 a month in Tesco's for 4 of us.
Top up shop between £10 and £20 a week.
Costco rallies to about £60 a month but thats mainly on the cat

We buy Value and cheaper stuff i always go to the reduced cabinet. Alway pick up on all the offers and basically use alot of basic foods Pasta. Potatoes. Bread. etc...... which are nice and cheap and can be used to make meals from.

I could cut it down more a monthe too but thats just no fun

We eat a lot of pototoes, pasta and rice etc, but we like things like steak, which we may have once a week as a weekend thing, and we have alot of spag bol and shepperds pie type dinners too, then there are the roasts and so on......but I like my cleaning stuff, and air freshners etc, that bumps the price up no end!

I'm a veggie. he dosent like steak and the kids don't eat anything like a roast Think thats why its cheap for us. Oh and i like the smellies too but its much cheaper to go to IKEA and get the scented candles and the Poundstore/99p store and get some air fresheners, and sprays.
