    Hi girls. The rain stayed but was drizzle so we still managed to go round the farm. DD2 enjoyed herself and that's all that counts.

    I list loads for 99p and don't make a lot, but anythig is better than nothing with money to be made so I have to make myself keep going lol.

    oh no i have just got back from shopping at tesco and i have majorly over spent! I am so annoyed with myself shoping for me and dd has come to £94 before any deductions. It is usually £50 max that is what happens when i have so much time to do the shopping!

    Right i am going through the receipt to see if i can see where i went so wrong or make myself feel better!

    okay shopping is nearly put away. stewing steak is in the slow cooker and there will be plenty so i can freeze a few portions. I have enought food to last a while so will not be going shopping for about 2 weeks now!

    I did buy quite a lot of non grocery items in my shop this week which is party why it cost so much.

    Hairdye was 2 boxes for £10
    bought dd swim goggles for £3.50 and a helmet for £4 both heavily reduced
    new mop bucket coz i broke mine and really strong on for £6

    then bread was on offer so bought 5 loafs so freezing some.

    I don't think it was a bad as i thought! Just going to make it last!

    WOW JEN I would go mad if I spent that much lol, but then I did a very small shop yesterday and it still came to £47 for some reason.

    I try to do a dooyoo review a day, manage it most days
