One savvy woman has shared her weekly shopping list which comes to a grand total of just £10, in a bid to help others do the same.

Mia Munro, a student in Newcastle, shared her weekly shopping list with the money-saving community LatestDeals.co.uk that comes to just £10 as “rents are going up,” making it harder and harder to save.

Sticking to a meal plan has made “a big difference” in her life as she is able to get the most out of her groceries to ensure they keep her full and last the whole week.

Mia said: “If it’s coming to the end of the month and I’m short on money, I save on my weekly shop by sticking to this list that comes to £10. It keeps me going for a week and doesn’t break the bank.

“The total comes to £10.08 now, so just over a tenner which I think is great value for a week's worth of food. It used to be under a tenner up until a few weeks ago. Prices have gone up.”

She bought foods that can make a variety of different meals, but things that can keep her on a budget.

For example, sausages are a staple in her shopping list as she can have them for breakfast in a bap, or she can have them for dinner with mash and vegetables.

She explained she had a “nice mix of different options” and it usually keeps her pretty stuffed until dinner.

Mia continued: “I don’t do this every week, but when I’m having a tight month and need to watch every penny, limiting myself to a £10 budget makes a big difference.

“With rents going up it’s getting harder and harder to stay on budget. I don’t want a credit card or to get into any debt, so this meal plan helps me keep on track.”

Food and drink inflation was at 14.6 percent in June according to the most recent industry data.

All of Britain's major grocers have recently cut the prices of some staple products, such as milk, butter and bread with Tesco’s CEO saying the country's food inflation was starting to ease, signalling some relief for squeezed shoppers.

Tom Church, co-founder of money-saving community LatestDeals.co.uk said: “I remember being a student and coming to the end of the month with just a few pounds left in my bank. I would buy porridge just like Mia, but also lots of rice dishes for dinner as rice was cheap.

“Mia’s £10 weekly food plan is creative and shows what’s possible on a budget. But behind it is also a worrying story about rising rents and the cost of living crisis.

“Student voices are often ignored despite them incurring the highest tuition fees ever, rising debt levels, and extraordinary rental costs.”
