    Are you sure you can't use it up? Most 'out of date' stuff is usually perfectly OK to eat. Can you work out what might be salvageable and plan to eat it over the next few days. It should save you a bit... after that, maybe you need to join either the grocery challenge or mealplan threads... or both ;)

    Well done on your kitchen blitz. Feel free to come round when you've finished your place :D

    Think I will join those challenges greenbee!

    As for the out-of-date food, it was mainly baking stuff and herbs, I usually would use it up but it was out-of-date by about 4 years - sshh!!!

    I am going to start buying only when needed (or try baking more) :D.

    Who mentioned vino?! I am having a glass right now, and then bed - nite all x
