Too much, I was on the dole for fifteen months and could no way afford it. Only just got back into it after being in my current job and losing 25lbs of weight..

Anyway £50 easily, doing a ten quid plus shop every night apart from weekends..

30-40 a week. But stopped smoking and drinking a few months back, so I dont see it as costing me anything extra.

I'd put money on the fact that my £15 buys me more total calories than your spend.

A taste for everyday ingredients which are available in bulk as well as not eating meat helps a lot.....

Wow, food seems fairly cheap in the UK.

My bill is around the equivalent of 60 pounds. Though it seems we pay higher prices here in Denmark than you guys do.
