Children splash out on snacks.
Children in the UK spend 13 a week, with the biggest proportion of their
spending going on sweets, snacks and drinks, according to official figures released
today.
In 2002-03 and 2003-04, the nation's seven to 15-year-olds spent an average of
2.30 a week on snack-type food and a further 2.30 on other food - including
school meals and takeaways - according to figures from the Office for National
Statistics (ONS). These two categories мейд up 36% of their spending.
Clothing and footwear accounted for 2.00 of their cash, while games and hobbies
cost them 1.70, 80p of which went on electronic games and software. Mobile
phone costs represented just 50p of the 13.00 total.
Young teenagers were the biggest spenders, with girls aged between 13 and 15
spending an average of 21.50 a week and boys of the same age group spending
20.40. Children aged seven to nine spent an average of 7.00 a week, while 10 to
12-year-olds spent 11.00.
The average weekly spend on confectionery, snacks and drinks among young
teenagers was 6.80 - over a quarter of their total spend.
Young teenage girls were the biggest spenders on mobile phones, averaging 1.50
a week compared with an average spend of 90p among their male peers, while
young boys spent a larger proportion of their money on games and hobbies (35%).
Spending by children contributed to an average family outlay of 418 a week in
2003-04, according to the ONS's annual review of family spending.
Its expenditure and food survey of around 7,000 UK households revealed that the
bulk of spending went on transport, accounting for 61 a week.
This included 28.10 spent on the purchase of a vehicle and 23.80 spent on
running it. Public transport accounted for just 8.80 of the weekly spend.
Recreation was the next biggest outlay, with 57 a week going on TVs, computers,
newspapers, books, leisure activities and holidays.
Package holidays abroad cost families an average of 11.60 for each week of the
year, while just 80p a week went towards package holidays in the UK.
Total expenditure varied according to the size of the family and where it lived. In
London, the average weekly spend was 486, compared with 336 in the northeast.
Households consisting of three or more adults spent an average of 686 a week,
while the 'average' family of two adults and two children spent 611.
For the first time the ONS looked into the amount spent by households on housingrelated
costs.
It found that 116 of family spending went towards running a property, with an
average of 39 a week spent on mortgage repayments, 23 on alterations and
improvements, 20 on council tax, water charges and other service charges and
13 on rent.
When only households paying mortgages were put under the spotlight, the average
weekly spend on repayments was found to be 97.
Households in London paid 134 a week - 31% more than the national average -
while those in the north-east spent just 58 to service their mortgage.
