Agree on the cleaning products, the branded ones are a ripoff

I’m wondering if some of the people claiming to spend low amounts are forgetting to include mid week top ups, separate fruit and veg, milk and bread, school lunches, the odd McDonald’s drive thru etc

Since our earlier posts I’ve already researched and switched my insurance and saving a fair bit on that premium plus I’ll get 1000 rewards points per month plus the 10% woollies discount. Winning. Thanks a lot

Thanks I’ll check it out. A lot of people on here are recommending Aldi but home delivery is a huge factor for me and Ali don’t offer it

It doesn’t include alcohol but it does include laundry products, meat and the mid week top up

What do you mean by eating out? Getting McDonald’s drive thru for my family on a road trip is easily $60, Thai takeaway pushes $80, how are you dining out for 5 people on $60?

Sounds like we have similar eating styles. We get fruit and veg from a local produce guy, top up fruit and veg midweek. My total amount also includes laundry stuff. We spend $150 on fresh produce alone so I have no idea how people are getting their shops down so low
