£350 rent
£75 petrol
£11 internet
£50 bills (although electric/gas are quarterly)
£75 council tax
£35 student-loan repayment
£300 credit-card repayment
Car insurance is paid lump-sum annually, so can't really add that in either...
Outgoings tends to be just under £1k/month, incomings is a nice amount over £1k, so I'm comfortable for the moment......still want to get out of renting, though, and buy a house.

I dont work so dont need to get to work and back
Stay in city centre so can walk to the shops
Walked to my mums a few times which took me an hour and a half each way lol!
Just use the car when I need to go somewhere far so dont use up much petrol at all
