Needs and Wants



To help us understand the diffrence between needs and wants we looked at shopping for our families. I worked with Iisa to complete a list. At first a budget was not stated however we had these gidelines that we needed to follow

  • Shopping list includes ingrediets for 5 main meals; shopping list has at least three different types of fruit;
  • Shopping list has 4 sanitary products included; shopping list has enough bread and milk for the week
  • Think about: quantity of particular items, e.g. number of bread loaves, litres of milk, grams of mincemeat, etc.

After completing the list we recievied a budget and had to think of which items were necessary and which weren't. My grocery list totalled to $109 but my budget was $200 dollars. I have $91 dollars left. I have chosen to save the money for later.
