    My tip is to go onto the supermarket (say Tesco) website and check out all the deals,then I can do a grocery shop and price it up and know exactly how much it's going to cost.

    Saves me from overspending.;)

    I cant begin to tell you how easy it is to stretch 2 chicken fillets into a meal for 4 or 5. I think you did really well, now if you had spent a fortune on cleaning products i would have been the first to kick you up the bum.;)
