    Lunches are usually leftovers (I normally make an extra 1 1/2 portions which I share with the kids the following day) or soup.

    Normal supermarket spend per month : £300 + (including nappies, formula, toiletries, presents, cards, kids clothes etc)

    Jan grocery budget (same stuff included): £180
    Jan spend so far : £84.19 (excluding DH's crocodile burgers ;) )

  • I am so enjoying everyone's mealplans that I'm hoping to join in - will do an inventory hopefully this pm ( off to a nearby town to hire dd's ski wear for school trip first) and post tonight.

    I have done this very successfully in the past but have recently returned to full time work after 17 yrs so have lapsed but so need to do this.

    Mine will also be vegetarian as we have been a veggie family for 22 years so it'll have a different view from everyone else's

    Hope you don't mind me joining in??
