Big Brother 2013 spoilers: Housemates get £280 shopping budget after task

The Big Brother 2013 housemates have managed to raise just half of their luxury shopping budget this week.

For this week’s shopping task, the three Safe House housemates – Gina, Dexter and Charlie – became members of the Treasury and will be implementing cuts for the house.

Each cut will save the housemates money, which will be put towards their shopping budget.

But there were also a series of treats and temptations which would cost the group money.

On Day 1, the Treasury chose to:

Strike the housemates clothes – raise £95

The vainest girl in the house cannot wear make up – raise £65

Jack and Joe were chosen to separate alphabet spaghetti on slices of bread to continually spell out ‘Times are tough, lets pull together’ – £60

Take away all cigarettes – £90

However, The Treasury chose these perks:

Gina got her nails and make up professionally done – cost £20

Dexter had an expert wine tasting course – cost £40

Champagne for the treasury – £25

The housemates chose to:

Eat pizza – cost £30

Have a night of pool access, music and alcohol – cost £75

As a result the total gained for the shopping budget after day 1 is: £120

Day 2 saw the Treasury trio implement the following new cuts:

Jack and Joe were chosen to separate mixed seafood into tubs raising £60

Dan and Wolfy were chosen to be handcuffed together for the duration of the task raising £70

This week’s nominations were revealed raising £150

But Charlie chose to have a massage costing £30 while birthday girl Sophie went on a duty free spending spree costing £90 – made up of a pamper hamper £22, spray tan £10, mystery box 1 £22, mystery box 2 £13, sweets hamper £15, paddling pool £8.

That brought the total money raised over the two days to £590, but having incurred costs of £310, the housemates have £280 for this week’s shopping.

So the safe house trio spent £115 in total and the others spent £195.

I bet Dexter and Gina still somehow end up getting the blame for the shopping budget being low (well not really low but it's not exactly a luxury amount)

They all knew it would come off the total so they can't really moan at anyone.

Enough left to feed themselves for the week if they go very careful.

Works out at £21 something each.

Lol at those on here slating Dexter and Gina for their spending when they spent less than the main house and Charlie also spent some money. Some people are just finding any excuse to hate on them.

They still raised £280 so that is £23.33 per person for the week. That's enough.

Yeah,but the more people the merrier when it comes to a food budget. They will eat well if they don't buy fags and backy.

£280 divided between 13, 12 after Friday is not very luxurious especially when you consider the cost of tobacco! (counting the twins as two for the purpose of food, probably should be counted as six, though!)

There is 13 of them, the twins can't count as one when it comes to eating, do you want them to fade away to nothing?

Yes but one of them will be leaving tonight, meaning the budget is to be split between 12.

But yes, if both twins could fade to nothing, I would like that.

Ah good point, will they still not have spent their cut when they ordered the shopping though? I'm sure I heard them say on the LF last night that they hope the shopping comes early.

No doubt Wolfy ordered rollup baccy and rizla's to take with her.
