I include the dog in my GC - she is not at fussy - thank goodness. We don't buy alcohol. Mr F was given a bottle of red wine last week - that will go in cooking. Re biscuits - cheaper to make and more filling.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering Target - 2024 - 2,874 April - 252/300

I am very impressed. You do well. Sadly my dog is on a special gundog breeding diet so cannot cut costs there...and my 5 /7 year old boys love their bread and semi skimmed milk...we use 4 pints a day and a loaf every 2 days...I tried making it and find they love it toasted but not in packed lunches so ended up with both loaves every day...leaving the garden birds happily fed!
I grew up with nothing so have sadly spent the last 15 years making up for it! I need to buy a house though in the next 2 years before I am too old for a mortgage! eek...I need a deposit and have no savings...this is why I need to stop giving it to Mr T & Mr W all the time! It is mine mine mine and I want it backMake £/day March: £1490.85 / £310
