Are ready meals good value?

Jane Furnival (Author) gives expert video advice on: How can I avoid impulse buying?; Is it cheaper to buy fresh or frozen meals? and more...

Ready meals, what a waste of money! Frozen or chilled ready meals cost, from my research, eight times more than if you bought the raw ingredients and cooked them. You're buying time - to do what with? Sit in front of the TV? You are rarely so important that you don't have time to make scrambled egg with salad, or something equally quick and wholesome. If you want to save money, don't buy frozen or chilled ready meals.
