A budget hint for the future: bags of dried lentils and beans work out far cheaper than the tinned varieties. With tins, half the weight is the liquid they're packed in. Buying dry lentils and beans does meaning planning ahead, as you will need to presoak them unless you have a pressure cooker.

Depends. A can of kidney beans is currently 30p in Lidl. One kg of dried beans makes about 10 cans worth, drained weight. So if your dried beans are 2.65 a kg, factoring in the gas to cook them makes it not worth it. You'd be better buying the tinned beans and saving your time. Depends totally on the price of tinned and dried beans in your area.

Thanks for this video. I am going t have to live like this ( and already have been to some extent ) for the forseable future due to the rising costs of living and especially the hikes in fuel prices. I see lots of comments from Americans about how cheap food is here but remember petrol (gas) ia much more expensive here in the UK and the average electrcity and gas bills are rising really fast and by huge amounts. We are also very heavily taxed and wages are comparitively low. I am on a minimum wage of £9.50 per hour and that does not go a far at all. I never eat out, never buy take away - not even drinks, I can't afford biscuits, chocolate, fizzy drinks, meat, and eat low budget food all the time. Some days I do not eat anything as I have no money to buy any food. This is not a pity party, I am just telling it like it is.

Did you see him make anything from scratch? Everything was tins and jars, he could get untold vitamins from cabbage, baby spinach and lots of other vegetables... Stir-fry cabbage, onion, chips and rosemary herb is 80pence meal that's got more vitamins in it than those Bananas at 69p, and cost just little more than a tin of soup and cheap bread... He should try baking his own bread, take a couple of hours most of which is proving, you can read a book with a cup of tea and biscuits while it does so. £1.00 of 1.5kg strong bread flour will get you about 4-5 small loaves of bread or 3 large ones that cost 33p each small loaf, plus yer electricity so about 50p but the taste is just delicious.... Seriously if he carried on with that diet for a few months he'd be spotty, a fat gut from all those carbs, and his nervous system won't stand up to winter and viruses, he'll be down the doctor's and he'll walk away from there with pills and that's where it starts.

So affordable!! Can't get over how much cheaper things are in the UK!! This would all add up to close to $30 Australian, even taking into account the conversion rate we're still paying sooo much more for our groceries!! If I took this same shopping list to my local Aldi I would have to pick and choose and would need to leave out probably half of the items you bought in order to keep within what this spend would convert to, which is about $17.50 Australian dollars, so you are lucky to be able to buy so many things at such a low cost! Having said that though I really appreciated that this was a vegan challenge/meal plan being vegan myself and also definitely agree that eating this way does help to keep the costs down. I'd love to see another one of these kinds of videos if you were up to doing another challenge again sometime so encourage you to consider this, it was really helpful and inspiring! Thanks

And especially bread, it is so sweet here and 10-12x as much for basically a small sugar loaf. I use these plans as a basic budgeting tool though, minus what costs an arm and a leg in the states.

So I typed it in my supermarket app and found out that in Germany this shop would cost 25 euro with the inflation and stuff its just ridiculous expensive here now. It's 1,5 times as much as you payd but euro pound course is today 1,18€ to 1pound

This video totally outlined that my country is price gouging. Even turning the pounds to dollars and converting currencys. (what did you do to make canned tomatoes on bread taste good)? Beans on toast is always a budget classic. No matter what it's always special

Absolutely! I moved from the UK to Eastern Europe and I expected the food to be cheaper here: not at all! Food in the UK is the cheapest anywhere I've ever known and the quality is pretty good too (apart from the fruit that has to be imported from far away, doesn't taste so great generally).

I like tesco 20p rice pud or 22p beans. Come in very handy. Never shopped at Aldi.

Then I watch videos like this, I always notice how easy it would be for a week and how repetitive the taste vise it would get after a few months unless you are going to spend all 40 euros at once and buy things for the whole month. And yes, you have some essentials in your cupboard then you start living like this, like sugar, salt, vinegar, baking soda, spices, oil. But after a few months of living this way, it is all gone. And you have to restock, and it is not cheap to do when you are on a budget like this. I drink coffee. That is half of the week's budget. Tea costs too. If I did this in Lithuania i would go for apples, cabbage, carrots, beetroots, celery roots and potatoes instead. They are cheap and store well in a dark place. You can make salads for sides out of them, make different soups, stew. If you buy flour, you can make pastries stuffed with vegetables or apples, boil them or bake in the oven and eat it as a meal or snack with coffee. In Lithuania cheapest tofu I have seen. 200g, cost 3.4 Euro, so it would cheaper go for pig lard or bones for stock. With that You can make stock for soups and other meals and there is still some meat on a bone you can debone and use for your meals. And I guess the discount corner of a store would be your go-to place too. Honestly, you can just buy potatoes, oil, and ketchup and live a whole week eating that. Most students do that 20 days out of 30 and still are alive somehow.

Great video. Nice variety. I also find that going vegan has helped trim my grocery
