In the last few days before payday, I've become really talented at making the end of my wages work - haven't we all? With a rise in energy charges, bills increasing and also, the cost of everything on the up, it's important to know where you can go to make the pounds stretch.
So what do you do if you are down to your very last £10 with days ahead of you before the next paycheque? With that in mind, I challenged myself to head to Tesco and pick up as much as I could for a tenner.
It was much harder than I thought to get a solid shop out of ten pounds. But I did manage to get a fair amount including bread, pasta, mushrooms, broccoli, oranges, cheese, baked beans, tuna, frozen waffles, tomato soup, spring onions and rice. I think I could make it last a week but it would be hard going.
