After all bills are paid what do you spend most money on ?

[hattie43]

I was quite surprised it’s actually on my pets . I thought it would be socialising then clothes but no it’s my dogs .

If we're not including food then activities and tutoring for children.

Are you referring to food? Because insurance etc is presumably a bill?

Pantry; I keep a well stocked pantry and freezer.
Adult children; I give generously

What little is left goes on plants for the garden.

Travel, followed by eating out.

Clothes, holidays, my dog, hair & beauty, plants and flowers

Clothes, books and makeup

Grandchildren
Meeting friends for lunch/ evening drinks
Trips to theatre / visiting son in London
One huge trip to Australia last year to see other son .

Holidays then food including eating out. Expensive holiday (for us) this year as going for a month.

children (including adult) - therapies, education, activities, travel (far more than our bills)

School fees
Horses

Food shopping and holidays/travelling.

Eating out and holidays.

Savings.

Me too! Apart from the car related parts - replace those with train journeys, or the odd Flixbus at midnight 🙈.

Food.
We are going away in a couple days and on holiday most of our money will be spent on eating out too.

Interesting question.
Food then Probably socialising coffee meals etc.

This month I’ve budgeted for food, fuel and travel, DH’s big birthday, a new mattress for one child, bulk buy toilet roll (farm foods), a facial, gutter fix and loads of other gifts and cards as well as a condolence fruit basket and happy retirement flowers.

Food shopping for the family.
The amount spent on food monthly has really risen over the past three or four years.
Pet (cat) food also, I spend way more than I ever thought was possible but I don't begrudge them that at all.

Don’t people think of food as a bill? It’s not like you could do without it. But yeah, our food bill is huge now.

I class food shopping in all bills, this is purely for leisure

Dinners and lunches out and our Motorhome.

In the last few years:

-Maintenance on the flat I rent out (roof repairs, carpets, toilet seats, all manner of boring shite)

-My bloody teeth. (Fillings, root fillings, extractions, implants…)

Hoping to be able to spend some £ on gigs and holidays at some point in the future. In the meantime, DH has been bailing me out on that front but I look forward to being able to contribute to the trips and treats.

DC activities - sports, music lessons, camping and trips with Scouts, school trips abroad.

Travel, eating out, grandkids.
