Food budget for the week: £40.

Amount spent: £39.40

So it can be done!

What is 40--about 50 U.S.? In any case, well done, and 40 pence (?) left over for savings! :)

$50 is probably about right.

I remember when £1 was worth around $2, but those days are long gone.

Closer to $75 according to ft.com - Dubya has driven the dollar down considerably over the past few years.

Thanks.

I haven't had to change dollars into sterling (or vice versa) for quite some time.
