Britons are spending as much as 83 billion pounds a year without knowing where the money went, according to research by Visa.

A survey of over 1,000 people revealed that the average UK adult spends 33 pounds ($61) every week with no recollection of what the money bought.

With that amount, Visa said, the average household could have paid for the following:

-- everyday power and water bills for the whole year.

-- 96 percent of traveling costs for the year

-- all the weekly grocery shopping for three quarters of the year.

-- 72 percent of home improvements costs each year

-- three months' mortgage payments.

I can totally relate to that. I've burned through thousands at times and had nothing extra to show for it, and people say "Well, what did you spend it on?" and I say "I have no idea!"
