1/ Universal Credit amounts for a single person, living in their own accommodation:
Under 25: £257.33
Over 25: £324.84

£257.33 for bills, clothes, food etc

£228.35 remaining
Now say £60 for electricity & gas.
£168.35 remaining
Scotland has water rates, appx £12

3/ Let's say £20 travel fares for month, eg to interviews, shops & to see family
£136.35 remaining
That would leave you with an average of £34.08 a week for ALL your shopping. That means food, toiletries, cleaning products etc.
Heaven forbid you need clothes....
