DH and I are finally settled in full time jobs and getting finances in order! Going to have a joint account for important stuff, and a pocket money account each for frivolous stuff. We share all money, but he's DREADFUL at managing finances - constantly 'surprised' by gas bill/council tax/car insurance and can't pay it as blew entire paycheck on shoes and DVDs - so I'm we're setting it up to constrain what he's able to spend! Currently working out numbers and I'm just not sure what to budget for food. In our old house we tended to shop daily as there was next to no storage, and what we bought varied wildly - depending on my employment situation at time, who was shopping (DH is magnetically drawn to Waitrose finest gourmet branded stuff despite us not being millionaires), and whether he'd made a mess of things and we were digging small change out from down the back of the sofa to keep us in value pasta for the last week of the month!
So what do you/did you spend for two adults? (We're sort of Sainsbury's-level comfortably off. Not Waitrose rich, but not Netto skint iykwim).
