Living on £1 for a day at Aldi!

Atomic Shrimp does some great 1£ challenges too. Great try.

[@SamWilder.]

I’ve seen the ones from London Hacks and Clickfortaz but not heard of them. Definitely will check them out!

@@SamWilder. yes, Atomic Shrimp (Mike) is a true gem! Enjoy 😊

How can you not like jacket potatoes? This would be a lot easier if you lived off £7 for a week than £1 for a day, then you could buy multi-packs and ingredients that last more than one day.

[@SamWilder.]

Oddly enough, I like a jacket sweet potato... just they were like 55p each! Definitely one for the future! For now, going to see what we can get for £1 at each of the major UK Supermarkets! Genuinely think Tesco will fair much better than Aldi!

[@anniegetyrgun8741]

New challenge idea: can you live on £25 a week, for four weeks, in different supermarkets each week…I had to live on £100 a month food budget for five months a couple yrs ago. . Over the weeks you can build up a stock of oats, pasta, rice etc. the first couple of weeks were hard but once you had a few ingredients in hand it gets easier. I would include drinks too, like tea or coffee…

Foraging! Dandelion greens are full of vitamins and super healthy. Great to add to one of those instant pastas. Elderflowers to replace the milk and butter if you can find some. Chickweed is in season now, along with wild garlic, super helpful to add a nutty flavor and vitamins to meals! Love the video! if you did the challenge for a week with foraging you could eat pretty decent! One bag of flower with foraging based pestos and potages can tide you over really well, and you can spend the remaining quids on some low cost protein!

Shop at stores that allow you to buy things by weights, and shopping weekly allows you to mix and match the foods. It also allows for a tastier menu

[@SamWilder.]

Definitely one for the future!

The tescos episode could be interesting, the reduced section always has cheap food

[@BMordecai]

When you reach 100,000 subscribers, I think you should do a "Living on £100 for a single day" special for the most fancy of day's of food ever 🤣

[@Dora0-0123]

Not a bad try! I would have just lived off cheap instant ramen for the day.

[@heatherthornhill2964]

35p for some independent bakeries bread buns but asda bread buns are 40p at the cheapest now. Soup was probably your best bet.

[@Appopl]

Leedle is not something I want to hear again 😂

[@SteRiskE]

I know this is a month old now but you could have literally gotten a Banana like you did, then some Everyday Essentials bread for 39p and a tin of Spaghetti in sauce for 16 p from the Everyday Essentials range and had banana butty for Brekky and Spaghetti on toast for dinner. Banana was 16p that would have been 71p leaving you 29 p for tea

Please try £2 per day , £14 for the week.

[@SamWilder.]

Once we get through this series I have a few more money challenges planned - this one is a good idea :)

Thank you!

You could have just made fries in your air fryer instead of a baked potato.

[@catkasimir]

Make it into 30 pound for the month and you might actually be able to eat for a pound a day.

What about the co-op?

I swear it gets even harder at each supermarket!!

[@OranSeal]

How dare you not like potatoes

[@SamWilder.]

Jacket potatoes! Normal potatoes are fiiiine. I guess.

[@uweinhamburg]

Don't do 1 day for 1 GBP - do a month for 30/31GBP. It would be much more realistic because the element of repetition and boredom would get into it. Cats and pigs don't complain if they get the same stuff each day. For us humans - but 'Toujours perdrix'??

[@SamWilder.]

I'm thinking of doing £7 for 7 days at some point, once I've made my way through each supermarket. 30 days might be a bit too painful though!!

[@uweinhamburg]

@@SamWilder. Thanks for reacting! The reality of life for many people would be that they would be forced on living at a low level budget for a long time. Not like something your UK 30 pence a day MP was aiming at. But then - a 7 day challenge would be far more realistic. Give it a go! Btw. i do love potatoes and pasta - can't get enough of it 😉🤣 Stay healthy!!

[@sk-ud6kf]

And did you end up losing a lot of weight?

[@SamWilder.]

Getting there haha
