Tip 5: Freeze Ready Meals

Life in London can be busy, and often you'll find yourself doing something after work - be it a pub quiz, a "gig out East", or an exhibition. You may find you don't always have time to cook a meal, and eating out is an expensive option. A handy tip is to always have a few Ready Meals in the freezer that you can heat up quickly and eat before you go out. Places like Tescos and Sainsbury's often have bargain isles where you can get a Ready Meal for around £1 - grab them while you can, and store them away for when you need them. I usually have a lasagna, garlic bread and a pizza (for when you come home drunk) in there. These are also great options for lunches at work (as long as you have a microwave).
