many vids on YT for this situation, you won’t be the only person making rice with butter or pasta and grated cheese, drink plenty of tea that will fill you up, hope your
money is in on time

Who do you have to feed and what do you have? Any money on loyalty cards anywhere?

How big is your overdraft? Can you borrow £20 off someone? Then with that £20 you can get a couple of cheap loaves of bread, beans, a couple big bags of pasta etc to tie you over?

Failing that have you got any community kitchens near you where you can often pick up very cheap or free food? Or Too Good To Go you can get good deals.

just eat whatever you have.

Are you feeding just you or your family?

Can you do a full list of everything you have in. Evan include things like a bit of flour etc so people can help you work out a meal plan

What exactly do you have? I’m pretty good at throwing meals together but no point suggesting anything without knowing what you have as you mightn’t have an ingredient
