Just updating my totals.Picked up some teabags at Mr T for 10p a box of 40 got 5.However processed peas at 60p a tin are not a managers special they're usually 34p anyway.Judging by the baskets someone got their price gun stuck on 60p!LOL

Afternoon

Have just updated my sig and have been MIA for a while but have still been doing the GC. PLEASE CAN I DECLARE AT £364.65 FOR JANUARY AND SIGN UP FOR FEB BUDGET OF £350 SORRY IT'S A BIT LATE!!

Have been to do food shopping this morning and needed quite a few bits so have spent £84.29 - but I do have good supplies in the freezers and stock cupboards. For the last 2 weeks I have been doing a baking session, I've made 2 dozen biscuits, 2 dozen cup cakes, bakewell tart, fruit tealoaf and jam tarts - I haven't had any - but OH and the boys are loving them. They take them for pack-ups etc. I'm really enjoying making them. Will need to do some more for next week but want to make something different so we'll have to wait and see. Have partly done a menu plan for next week - so need to continue with that. Must dash otherwise nothing will get done.
Keep safe and well everyone.

Just been to Tesco for the Cravendale milk £1 for 4 pints.

Used Farm Foods spend and save vouchers for the first time that we got pushed through the door. Got £7.50 off so well pleased.

Bought quite a few things but a lot of it doesn't come out of my grocery shop i.e. valentines present, face cream for son, magazines, wine.

So the amount for my grocery challenge is £30.92. I will add to my sig now.

Hi everyone :hello:,

Not posted for a little while, but have been reading along. My total looks really scary and I still need to feed the children and DH throughout half term, so I reckon I will be over this month. I have enough in the freezers to do all the main meals, just need f&v, but only £35ish left so it's gonna be tight.

DD1 is 11 today, so it's fajitas tonight, with choc birthday cake for pudding nom nom nom.

Keep up the good work everyone.

Hi everyone :hello:

£7.45 spend today on bread, milk and fresh soup. Will update sig in a mo.

Not doing too bad, although I'm full of cold at the moment and can't be bothered with anything! DH doing the shopping tomorrow, but at least I know he'll only get what's on the list!

Hope you all have a great evening, at least it's the weekend - yay!! :T
