how exciting!

but fuck me shopping costs a lot of money 140quid for what we thought were the basic foodstuffs my creditcard is going to DIE

 

140 quid on food - is that for a week

Still living at home, but me old maa only spends 90 quid a week on shopping - thats for a family of 4 - thejoys of tesco

 

Jesus Jim someone has moved in with you.

Oh shop at tesco or asda not at HARRODS

 

Congratulations Jim, hope your both happy there pal.

 

congrats jim and wtf are u eatin u fat git

 

My condolences Jim, it's down hill from here on in

 

Congrats



You'll have to speak to your bank and see if you can get an asbestos fire-proof credit card

 

good luck to the two of you, shes going to need luck, when she finds out what shes let herself in for

 

We gonna see a pic now then

 

Can someone take Jim's name off the Blackpool thread please cos i doubt he's gonna be able to make it now

 

how much ...

when i was living with my girlfreind i used to spend Ł75-Ł80 that
would last us the month, we would have to get the odd few things
like milk bread etc every now and then

 

140

We only do 60 on a bad week, between 3 of us.

 

everyone seems to be forgetting though that when you first move in, you need to buy everything, every condiment you can think of plus all the cleaning stuff

its not that bad when you take that into consideration

weve got 2 kids and another on the way and spend about Ł50 a week

oh and well done, now you'll understand how cheap it was living with your parents

 

How much!

 

We used to do average 80-100 a week but then we have 2 kids aswell , we have cut down loads recently and stopped buying all the 'Crap' we dont need, and we have been doing Ł40-Ł60 instead

 

Moving out in the nxt month ! Scary shit man

 

well done Jim,
it's all down hill from here, you will soon be selling the beemer for one of these!!!!

Good for you mate. Welcome to a life of skintness

 

It is expensive stuff like!

Do you use your credit card for everything? Beware

 

where the hell did you shop,, waitrose?

 

your missus sounds like mine, expensive taste in everything even food !!

they buy things for the sake of it and for those 'just incase' moments

 

non of you fuckers buy food from marks and spencers i take it then,,,,, i EASY spend 80 quid a week there,,, plus then the other shite i get from tescos that marks's dont sell

jim,,,,,, the shopping bill aint the bitch,,,,, its the decorating fees,,, furniture,,,,, COUNCIL FUCKING TAX that kills you

THEN the daft bint will get her self pregnant and the REAL bills turn up,,,, and the bigger kids get the more shite costs,,,,,,

jim just loose the deposit and move back home with mummy,,,, trust me on this

 

You shop in M+S?
Its bloody fine food but fucking expensive! Fuck that!

 

Plus, I'm surprised they let you in Ginge!

We M&S shoppers try to keep the commoners out

 

i shop in M&S , the food is fantastic

 

i shop at mark's cause there food is fucking ace,,,,, and the missus LOVES the deserts,,, cant see the point in eating shite just cause its cheeper,,,, i work to live and if i can spend 50 quid for a gram of charlie id like to think i can afford to buy a prawn cocktail for 5 quid,,,, also the fruit in marks's seems taste fresher and last longer than the market stall stuff

they also have nice posh chocolates near the tills that my little girl likes

the drinks in marks's are cheep though to be fair !!

oh and id feel ashamed walking down the road with a liddles bag,,,,, nothing wrong with shopping there dont get me wrong,,,,, just its alittle like getting changed inn the gym and you mate noticing your wearing jeans by george@ asda

oh and this is where life if wrong,,, we spend 140 quid on council tax,,,, yet we wont spend that on fucking food to live on,,,, fucked up aint it

 

Feckin ell! What you buying the whole shop??

You one of them ppl that has to have the best branded stuff?

For me and Josh i spend about Ł40 a week, but gonna cut down as most of it gets wasted

Nothing wrong with shopping at Lidl mate and most certainly not something to be ashamed about, cant understand why you would be ashamed of that

When you have 2 kids to feed that are growing like mad and 2 dogs to look after, a huge mortgage, stupidly high council tax, electric, heating, insurances to pay, phone, internet, etc etc etc and staying where i do the wages are not good so it makes sense to shop at Lidl and Tesco and try and save as much as possible every week.

Personally i choose not to shop at M+S as its massively overpriced and not any better than what you can buy from any of the cheaper supermarkets.


Rant over.

 

i hate M&S full of people who THINK they got money

 

Very true mate!!

Thought M+S stands for Mugs and Suckers !!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ginge !

Do one with your comments about jeans from George at Asda's

Nout wrong with them, and I wear them. Cheap and cheerful, and when they start fading or you rip them at work like i do, its only Ł10 to get another pair

 

ROFL @ M+S - it's only recently that with M+S ads on TV everyone thinks it is something special... M+S have been making cheep shite for decades, and they still do - only now they advertise it better and make people think that it's posh or special and then charge you extra for it

 

Lol! The one in culverhouse cross certainly is anyway!

Jumpers, socks, knickers and desserts can't be bought anywhere else though really... m&s's high points

& the green seedless grapes...my mum won't buy grapes anywhere else...?!

 

gareth you obviously aint been there,,,,, its full of old women doing there shopping,,,, or atleast my one is


i shop there cause the food is REAL quality,,,,, but i got hooked on it when i lived at home with mummy and daddy as my sister used to be a manager of marks and spencers and she used to buy "waste" food which is food thats almost at its shelf date and so she got it for half price,,,,,,, but the food is fucking class,,,,,

i DEFFO dont think ive got money,,, im a poor arse pikey cunt but i feel that food is a thing thats worth spending money on,,,, lifes too short and we all work too fucking hard NOT to enjoy what we work so fucking hard for

as for the liddles comment,,, its not a piss take or a insult,,, i get paid well now but a few years ago i was earning more than half what i do now and i just had a child then,,,,, so i DO appricate peoples situations and i NEVER look down on people,,,,, CHRIST,,,, I GREW UP ON A COUNCIL ESTATE !

 

Whats wrong with good old aldi`s

 

and that was the last M&S i went in,,, totally pisses me off

ginge,,, i get forced to go in there all the time,, my missus and missus sister love it there!

 

used to work for a food factory that supplied iceland and tesco m&s the premier sponge that went inthe m&s box wasa iceland bargain sponge!!! fancy labels same shit i know coz i was a chargehand for 2 years there and was amazed how super markets con people

 

thats total shite mate,,,, the sandwiches in marks and spencer used to embarress the other supermarkets,,,, they used to have a policy years ago where they NEVER advertised and they ONLY sold marks and spencer products,,,, they introduce us english to the avacado,,, the chicken kief,,,, they clothing is of fucking high quality

buy a suit from marks and spencers and i FUCKING PROMISE no cunt will belive it,,,, the cloth they use is sooo fucking class,,,,, its a dam good store,,,, who used to be in there OWN league,,,,, but they got sloppy and lost there place when waitrose came about and safeway/morrisons started to produce decent food,,,,,

eat something in marks and spencers then eat the same thing in kwick save and tell me you cant tell the difference,,,,, if you aint that right just buy a apple from there and another from a market and tell me whats nicer

 

read above ginge int aint the case mate i tell theeeeee

 

Correct me if im wrong bit aint most of the food you get in M+S packet food that just needs bunged in the microwave and heated up !!

My wife reckons all the people that shop in M+S cant cook and make the food themselves and obviously have to much money !!!!
