Another Block team is quickly travelling down the debt rabbit hole and they’ll need to fix their overspending habits or risk being cut off by Scotty Cam.

Following the guest bedroom and re-do rooms in week 10, a hardcore Blockhead has calculated the spending habits of each team and it looks like Oz and Omar could be in some trouble.

According to the calculations, Oz and Omar are nearly $37,000 in debt and have spent almost $312,000 on their country home.

Despite being in major debt, the pair have somewhat recovered as calculations released two weeks ago suggested Oz and Omar were more than $52,000 over budget.

Meanwhile, it appears other couples on The Block are sharpening up their saving skills as Ryan and Rachel have redeemed themselves after being $14,000 over but are now $22,000 under budget.

Dylan and Jenny have done the same by saving $26,000 and were only $6,500 over in previous calculations.

Tom and Sarah-Jane have saved just over $59,000 however the pair have also won more than $93,000 in prize money – which is the most amount won across all teams.

There appears to be a lot of money fear on The Block set after Ankur and Sharon’s crippling debt lead to Scotty Cam cutting off the couple.

It was confirmed that they had been $53,000 over budget and based on the Reddit calculations, Ankur and Sharon have built up more debt with spending nearly $66,000.

Ankur admitted to Scotty that he was aware of the “insane” overspend, but The Block host was not impressed.

“What do you mean you know? How can you keep spending? I don’t understand where you think you’re going to pay for it, we’ve got three weeks to go,” Scotty questioned.

“You guys have an encyclopaedia of unpaid bills.

“You’re spending money as if you think Channel 9 is going to give you some more money.”

The couple then blamed their builders, labelling them “lazy idiots” and claimed they have not worked hard enough.

“Sharon, just listen to what I’m saying,” he said brusquely. “I haven’t done this since the Oslo, I’m cutting you guys off. You’re gone.”
