Ive been trying to save between £80 - 100 per month since august out of my housekeeping money. This is 1/4 of it so has meant being very creative with the cupboards, using up stuff in the freezer and being very frugal/serious yellow sticker shopping and olio.
by the end of this month (pay runs 20-20th of the month) I should have around £300. I was planning to put it aside for early next year as a bit of a cushion and continue adding to it all the time I can afford to make the savings, however I'm now wondering whether I would be better off investing in buying basics like cereal, coffee, pasta, butter, cat food at the current prices and developing a bit of a stash to be used next year. food prices keep marching upwards so now I'm wondering if it would be more astute to buy what I know we will need.
in my position, WWYD ? Also any tips on what looks like still going up in price and worth the spend now ?
i can't believe I'm looking at how I can best invest my money in the markets of dried pasta and olive oil.... thanks, Putin
