    Vehicle : Insignia

    Trim : SE

    Engine : 2.0

    Year : 2011

    Default cost of living

    me and the other half sat down with some bills and receipts from last year we nearly cried when we compared to this year.


    last year / this year

    Road tax per week £4.04 / £6.15

    petrol per week £42 / £54

    council tax p/w £15.73 / £18.82

    electricity p/w £12.61 / £17.08

    morgage per week £67.50 / £77.50

    food / shopping p/w £120 / £155

    car loan p/w £55 / £55

    equals £311.88 / £383.55

    and no pay rise from my boss this year and our lass got just under a £5 pay rise per week.
