In detail: Takeaway Spending Calculator for £20/week

£20.00/week on takeaways compounds to £1,040/year — a figure that often lands harder than the weekly cost. Over 10 years that's £10,400, which at a modest 5% invested return would have grown to roughly £13,520.

At this level, takeaway spending is probably a once-a-week habit — unlikely to be worth crash-cutting. The goal is awareness, not guilt. Knowing the yearly number lets you decide consciously instead of drifting.

Note: this calculation doesn't include tip, delivery fees, or service charges — which on app-based orders often add another 20–30% to the base price.
