Basically our car died, we'd booked a holiday then the boiler on our house broke. Although i am very low income i have a £1500ish in savings as a buffer. Whicifind very comforting. I had to take most of it out. So i seriously need to save it back again. Plus what i earn i spend every month so never anything spare. Dp pays the bills so i pay half mortgage and food and nappies. This is where i'll have to save. Already shop at aldi but never make food lists etc. So i'm sure i spend more than needed. What else can i be doing? Never shop at iceland, pound stretcher or home bargains. Are they any good. I spend around £1000 a month on food, nappies and extra bits for me, dp, a10 yo and a 2yo. Dunno where it all goes!
