You haven't given quantities in many cases which makes it a bit random, but a quick run through got me to approx £110-120.

Overthebow · 24/01/2026 14:28

I don’t buy some of those do not sure what they would cost, but I’m going to guess around £100-£120 depending on supermarket.

DontPokeMe · 24/01/2026 14:28

£105.00 - give or take.

Southernsod · 24/01/2026 14:29

£220 ish

Needtosoundoffandbreathe · 24/01/2026 14:30

£200 is my rough guess

BatshitIsTheOnlyExplanation · 24/01/2026 14:30

Aldi about £90-100
M&S about £140

itsthetea · 24/01/2026 14:32

Gluten free stuff I had no idea , darnes and windups similarly
but £200 easily

NotDonna · 24/01/2026 14:32

Brands can make a huge difference esp things like razors - disposable bic ones or Gilette 5 blades - full razors or just the blades etc?
Absolute minimum if basic no brands from cheaper supermarket would be £80 but easily double that if high end brands / corner shop / posh supermarket.

CandiedPrincess · 24/01/2026 14:33

Without reading other answers, and based on my own shopping/brands I'd say about £130

Yep I'd agree with around £100 - I usually shop at Aldi so it may be more. It also depends on the brands - are the tinned tomatoes the basic range, neopolitana or whatever they're called, or mid range, for example.

ThePoshUns · 24/01/2026 14:39

I really can’t be arsed. Just tell us.

notacooldad · 24/01/2026 14:48

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/01/2026 14:49

£100 ish but depends id say £1 ham or £3/4 nice stuff

small bag of essentials pasta 39p or big bag of normal £1.50
etc

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/01/2026 14:50

Oh. You replied while I was posting. I was roughly near

as I said depends why size of stuff

Tryagain26 · 24/01/2026 14:55

Gluten free stuff is more expensive and I'm assuming the meat is fresh and top quality rather than economy range so I'd guess 150
I have no idea what salmon darnes are though

SpidersAreShitheads · 24/01/2026 15:05

Aah you’ve posted before my guess 😂 I thought it would be around £108 but I don’t know how much GF stuff costs.

£90 for all of that is a bargain I’d say! The cost of food is crippling at the moment.

Bishbashbush · 24/01/2026 15:09

Depending on where you buy it from, I’d say between £150-£200.
