Using stamps from pre paid envelopes
Not sure where else to put this but here goes.

When I meal plan for the week in my online food shop, it works out more expensive which seems to be the opposite of everyone else who plans for the week. This week its £50 for me! Also, I'm vegetarian. I have a list of things in my cupboard, and I'd love it if you could all…
