How much do you spend a week/month?

[buttons]

probably something people are more comfortable with answering so how much, roughly, do you spend a month?

[e5]

I spend about £800-900 a month on bills and food and other everyday stuff. Most of it is spent on drinking ugh! Sometimes less, depends how much i go out or depends what I buy that month. Minimum is £500 (£1000 for us both) though on rent, bills and food as they are the necessities. Luckily get to split the bills with my girlfriend otherwise I'd just not live and be moving back with the parents rent free!

as a full time student that doesn't even go out i still manage to spend like £400 a month lol... food and clothes are literally all i am responsible for paying for! working some sort of part time job is essential to afford my stupid lifestyle. however a lot of the time i don't ask my parents for my travel/phone bill money back even though i could have it if i really felt the need to

i'd say the reason i spend so much is that my parents won't fund any sort of luxury for me lol so if i want it i really do need to go get it myself. every bit of furniture in my room i paid for n obv all clothes.

[Cerys]

im still at home etc so dont really have bills, but id say i spend about 150 a month just on luxuries like takeaways and pancakes

[lawrawrrr]

£400 rent (including all bills)
£200 food ish, plus varying amounts socialising
£100 general (average) other expenditure - like clothes, jewellery, makeup

that doesn't seem like enough but I can't think of anything else I buy ;O

i spend about £670 a month which covers bills (split with bf), car insurance/petrol and my phone. every couple months il buy some clothes/shoes. obviously more on my car service/mot, if i go out drinking or travelling etc.

[Inseriousity.]

times all that by 4

25 quid for cinema.
35 quid for internet
30-50 quid for misc.

510-530
lol living with my parents and most of my hobbies being free/relatively cheap keeping the costs down. :)

Yes I rent a room in a lovely 4-bed house. My best friend rents one of the other rooms and we don't currently have any other housemates, woo!

- - - Updated - - -

wait I forgot internet bill (25) and phone bill (25) every month so that too

[!:random!:!]

well, £300 rent (this includes accomadation of two room, food gets bought for us and all bills are paid for because we currently live with my boyfriends dad who helps us out financially a lot :) but this will probably go up soon as we are looking for our own house)
probs £50-£100 on new things (clothes, toys, ect.) (for myself, my son and partner)
£40 a month on dinners when am at college, £2 a day for 5 days.
£5-10 on habbo (for bc and sometimes credits.)

[Meanies]

Just the main bills and payments come to about £850 which covers most things like rent, car insurance etc but doesn't include electric or petrol. Electric works out at about a tenner a week and petrol probably 15-20 a week. Food we probably spend about £200-£250 a month, then if there's anything left we might get a takeaway every couple of weeks

[Kyle]

50 quid for rent

im moving in

I spend around 200 a month on food and alcohol. mainly the latter :)

[Samantha]

£50 a week board to my parents so £250 a month, then £16 for my phone bill, soon to be down to £10 a month. I think that's pretty much it on what I 'need' to spend on, anything else is generally going out, shopping, having a go on a bingo site/lottery/betting site, which will fluctuate the cost each month.

[Alkaz]

At the moment around £900 a month. Some months it's more and other months it's less. My main expenses are bills and clothes. Don't go out that often and when I do I spend like £50 and it's literally once in a blue moon unless I'm going out out then it's more.

[dbgtz]

About £500 - £550. Hard to guess since bills are paid every few months.

[Katy]

About 700.

100 Rent
40 Phone bill

The rest I don't have a clue

[Josh!]

$150 food and fun :P

[Jurv]

I honestly have no idea I need to start budgeting and keeping a note of what I spend

The only money that I know I spend each month for definite is rent and bills, which is around £300 and my phone bill which is roughly around £45 a month. Alongside that there's money I spend on going out, food, transport and clothes :¬:

[Zak]

About £1000 a month

[Sho]

£100 rent
£30 phone contract
£25 for random subscriptions like netflix, etc
£loads on petrol

probably another £200 on various things like travelling since i'm always meeting up with people.

[Matthew]

so i spend:

£600 on mortgage
£150 council tax
£150ish on bills
£100 on food etc
£300 on my car lease
£200ish on going out
£100ish buying things like clothes etc
£100-150 saved per month

probably completely ballsed that up, i don't really keep track. all i look for is that my bank account is growing lol

edit: and just checked that cant even be right as it doesnt add up to my monthly salary oh well

[OldLoveSong]

60 bucks phone
40 bucks gym,
30 bucks cat food
200-300 bucks generalized things so food/clothes/makeup/taxi whatever
(live at home currently o no rent yay me)

[velvet]

[GoldenMerc]

[-:Undertaker:-]

curtailing my spending lately so it's dropped from maybe like £30-£60 a week to like £20

[Elegance]

i only really spend money on food at college (around £15) unless i go out on the weekends then i spend about £20 when i'm out

[camera]

it depends if i go out or not. if yes, then maybe about 100SGD a week. if not, i probably spend close to nothing. everything is provided at work.

[Metric1]

My fixed expenses are roughly $10,950 (mortgage, property tax, hydro, car payment, insurance..) I couldn't/don't even want to guess what my variable expenses would be..
