A Greggs Meal Deal
For under a fiver you get a hot pastry, a drink, and enough carbs to power an afternoon. Hard to argue with the maths.
A Wetherspoons Pint
Love it or loathe it, Spoons keeps prices well below the national average. A proper sit-down pint without remortgaging the house.
A Costco Rotisserie Chicken
A whole roasted bird for around a fiver that can stretch into three meals if you're crafty. Bulk-buy heaven.
An Aldi Weekly Shop
Consistently cheaper than the big four, with own-brand goods that often beat the branded stuff in blind tests. Just try leaving without a random power tool.
A Railcard
A one-off payment that knocks a third off train fares for a whole year. Practically pays for itself in one return to London.
