            Well due to a run in with the Inland Revenue I am having to live on the smallest amount of money possible for the next few months! I have five pounds to spend on food this week so today I did my food shopping and the bill came to £4.53. (Its just food for me in case you were worried! and my cupboard already had some basics in it). I have to say it was quite a task to plan to eat for a week and still get the veg in (dont want to get scrurvy) but I bought:
Instant mashed potato: 33p
Orange Juice 38p
Cheese 98p
Tin of pineapple slices: 26p
Tin of chopped tomatoes 15p
A cucumber 78p
Tin of sweetcorn 17p
1 banana: 12p
2 peppers £1.36 (they were a bit expensive)
total: £4.53
So money left over for a bit more fresh fruit if I start to feel like i'm not getting enough vits.
Not bad. Now I just have to get through the week without spending ANYTHING - watch this space!When in doubt - have a cup of tea0 -
