We plan to spend less for two main reasons. 1 debts on cards of approx 3k between us and 2 marriage ... We don't really eat out, coffees out or anything. But we do waste a lot on stupid offers on groceries and just never gets eaten and goes out of date
Then maybe 2 or 3 take aways a month..

I am no longer working due to childcare. Dp works a ft day job and has own business ( think singer / entertainment) which is hit and miss depending on bookings as lots don't fit around his employed hours.
We just about get by on his wage and a tiny bit of TC.

We have done a turn to us calculatior and it says UC we'd get more but I'm Too scared to change. So we'll plod along.

Just thinking apart from '
Don't be sucked into buying unwanted things' what else can I do.

I already meal plan.. And plan to revert back to aldi..

Everyone of our meals are meat based which is pricey. But I'm crap at learning new recipes so stick to same old same old..
Unless any easier cheaper meals.?
