To all the SAHMs who got a car and does the houewifey stuff.......how much do u spend on PETROL and how OFTEN?

[Biglips]

just being nosey

thanks

I fill it up about once a fortnight and spend about £30.

Bearing in mind i do 1 or 2 trips to Ipswich a week to visit my dad (50 mile round trip) I usually go through about £20 every 10 days or so on petrol.

USed to be more when DH was working, as used to drop him off and pick him up 5 days a week, but now not doing that.

I have a 2ltr saloon car.

bowt £25 a week, but i'm not out every day and get groceries delivered (i spend less that way)

about £15 a week but its a big car and an extra £50 whenever I get to go home to birmingham which is as often as I can afford or find the time

to be honest apart from taking DS2 to nursery if Dh isnt home it hardly moves

About £50 a month unless I go to see my mum or dad (both 200 miles away) or other long journeys. I'm out and about 4(ish) days a week, into town, swimming, seeing friends etc. I walk if i can though.

£30-40 a week

meant to add - just got rid of a Jaguar cos it was more like £50 a week!

One fill up per fortnight costing about 50-55.

Fill'erup about every 3 weeks, about £35.
(Nursery run x4, plus SAHM stuff)
Will be much mire frequently soon as dh is up for a speeding ban on fri

a normal week about £10 a week.

a normal week with dh in hospital £60+

About £40 per fortnight. My car is our main one and ferries us all about at the weekends too so does about average mileage. It is a mini MPV.

No more than once a month - and sometimes once every 6 weeks. Walk dd to school so most of mileage for shopping as we live 5 miles from nearest town. If we have to visit relatives then the mileage goes up as the nearest are 45 miles away and most are in excess of 60 miles.

about £20 a week which 1/2 fills it.(small car)
i do about 10,000 miles a year, going nowhere, but we live in the stix.
dh has a big car and uses bio diesel and only spends about £30 a month.

about 150 a month. its a nightmre would never never have a petrol car again. its a zafira hoping to swop soon. schoolrun is 25 mile round trip 2x a day

Fill up about once every 2/3 weeks, about £60 for a full tank (diesel).

about £20 per week of diesel

But I live 30 miles away from anywhere

I fill up once a month, costs about 65 euros.

Only use my car for about town, so it gets a tenner a month and if I run low, I use dh's (company car, doesn't cost!)
