Ways to save, share ideas

Im looking at ways to save. I have 500 on a credit card and 500 on paypal.

No bills are behind. And we do the weekly shop in aldi around £70-80 pw. And top ups in tesco plus dcs dietary foods £40/50 per week. Leaves maybe 50 per week for whatever

I stress about it so much, despite 3 years ago being 10k in debt! I seem to stress about this more. More so the 500 on the card as i see that when i log on Internet banking.
I on used the card as all 3 dcs had a huge growth spurt so from shoes socks pants t shirts trousers jackets coats everything. Most matalan etc some next but not masses. So i guess for what i got it's not bad but i hate seeing it.

Before dh took on loads and loads of overtime. Im talking 15/16 hour days between 2 jobs. 6 days a week, that cleared debt of equipment he mainly needed for his job and car issues.

Im trying to save on fuel but everything is too far to walk except our local park which is the pits. So we drive to parks and country parks. Take picnics.

So i guess im thinking maybe cheaper meal ideas?
They all take pack lunches to school and work, sandwiches, crisp, yoghurt, fruit etc

Home for a cooked meal
