Question

Answer 1

Gas 35-40 week

Rent $425

Food $100 week

Helping the kids $200 month

It appears where you need to conserve is in your driving and electric. plan your trips so you make less. Switch your bulbs to the energy savers. (Have 3 bdr and run A/C two fridges big screen TV 3-4 computers and only spend about $70 a month on elec) Here in coalcracker country

Answer 2

$1,350 for my mortgage

$335 for water and electric

$400 for gas per month

$800-$1000 for food

Answer 3

My mortgage is $779 per month that does not include HOA fees of $155 per month, gas is $3.97 per gallon I only drive 5 miles to work one way so a tank of gas is usually $40 every two weeks, food can range from $400 - $600 per month but I have three people living with me.  I live in Charlotte, NC.

Answer 4

rent is 745 each month, utilities are around 70, gas is around 300 and food 300.  So around $1,415.

Answer 5

Florida- Rent $850 (we got lucky 3br house) Utilities $200-250 Food for a family of 4 is $400 to $500 Gas is easily $50 -60 a week just a one time fill up (husband carpools or else it would be more) Gas $200-250 Estimate $1800 to survive...food cost will lower when my 6 month old is no longer using formula and diapers this alone is $50 + a week which I add to food bill. And to add, we eat as cheap as possible! We also make ok money...bring in over 3,000 a month but still barely make it every month!!
