    In Philippines it was less than that for two of us for a week, it worked out about £15 per week and here for two of us it's about £120 per month

    You're on a winner then Michael, you are saving loads each month, no wonder you are keeping the Phil's afloat with all the cash you are sending there

    The £600 a month I'm now saving is for the new house, Blinds, Light Fittings, plumbing jobs like outside tap and different taps for bath, electrical jobs like lighting and power sockets in loft, Kitchen unit rearranged to in order to place our new Miele tumble dryer, Purchase new Smeg fridge alarm system and our new Alfa Romeo twin air Mito, Landscape and plant up the garden also Pond to build then save more to go to Philippines and live it up, now you know what I'm busy saving for, oh almost forgot, new Oled 4k tv and a 4k Pioneer Blue Ray player plus some other electrical components to order from Russ Andrews. Now you know what I would rather spend on and nothing ever on credit

    I thought you was moving into a new built house, so why change so much, remember it's only best to spend so much if the house is yours, otherwise you are throwing money or giving money away,

    You said £9 is more than half your weeks food shopping, so therefore you spend less than £18 a week or £72 a month. You then said you spend £120 a month.
    Not sure what I'm fishing for Michael, but if I catch it I'll send it up for you to cook and save a few pennies
