$25/week on petrol, unless we're going on a road trip. around the same on internets/home phone/2xmobiles.
yeah, petrol, car rego/maintenance, and parking can be a killer if you're commuting to the city. Public transport is on par or slightly better value if all you're doing with your car is commuting
Hmm quite a bit less than that and I drive a guzzler.
$200/mth is internet, home phone and 3 mobiles ($15 + $39 + $39). So about $50 a week
$130/month on Internet & Home phone.
$60/month on me and my wifes mobile phone.
$60/Month on Diesel for my car.
$120/Month on Diesel fo wifes car.
Would be close to $100/week all up.
Edit: if we add in insurances and rego.
much closer to $150/week

Why are people paying 200 bucks a month for internet; isn't there a lot of internet and phone packages for 79 bucks a month unlimited for both calls and data? I'm on 59 bucks a month unlimted which includes line rental.
Not available all areas, even though it is offered by national companies.
I pay $164 a month for home phone, internet & ipad, plus another $49 per month for my mobile. Hubby's mobile is paid for by his work.
We run two cars, but it would cost less than $50 per week for fuel, as Hubby only drives his to the station to catch the train, & I only drive locally most days.

Petrol for my car - about $30 per week
Petrol for motorbike - $30 per week commute plus outings on the weekend(weekend rides - sanity budget)

Landline and internet - $111 per month. Landline will have to go $25 per week - Internet is heavily used by four people
Mobiles $64 per month or $15 per week. Mine is very under-utilised, hubby's is essential for his work
Do we want to discuss alcohol expenses?

Actually scrap that, both cars are guzzlers (Commodores) but one takes the cake at an average burn of 16L/100km... more than a 4WD
