View submission: All this for 50£
Still looks like £50 can go further in some places but it's a healthy start based on your Canadian example!

I live in Toronto - would guesstimate that that’s about $120-140, based on what they have and thinking about my weekly grocery shop for a family of 4. So, £65-75 - a bit more expensive. No idea where OP’s got the top end of their range from.

Oh definitely, there’s brand name salt and pepper and mayo. And there’s tinned sweetcorn and microwave rice, both of which are much cheaper buying in bulk frozen and dried respectively. Plus you could shop at Lidl or Aldi and it’d be cheaper. But we are still so lucky with what we can get here for the price compared with continental Europe.
I highly recommend Asda’s frozen sweetcorn, in my opinion it’s nicer than tinned stuff and it’s really handy to have in.
