So the average weekly food shop is about £31 per adult person according to Google but that includes one meal out at £13.
I think I spend about £42 per person on my weekly supermarket shop but that includes some none food items and I’m not going out of my way to eat cheaply. I’m not a member of any loyalty scheme and there is only Tescos nearby. The COOP sadly is prohibitively expensive like most things with socialist origins. Farm shops here are also prohibitively expensive until you go to the south of the county to proper side of the road prefabs, stalls and warehouse types.
Home cooking ain’t quite what it used to be as the cost of heating the oven will soon be more than the cost of the food being cooked, but used thoughtfully you get a lot more out of a kWh by using steamers, putting it all in the oven at once and cooking big batches etc.
But has anybody time or inclination to look into all of this?
