I think I’m slightly better off, because I’m not shopping so often, and shopping online when I do, therefore no ‘impulse buys’ or wee treats. I’m also not going out for lunches or dinners.
One son tells me they’ve saved on transport and lunches because they’re working from home, but spending more on food for during the day, especially when the children were not at school. Another has spent far more because they are eating all day at home, and drinking more at night! The third one is worse off, as his wife is a self employed hairdresser, so wasn’t able to work.
