Total spend so far = £31.94/£200. Pretty good
Am the type of person that goes to the shops most days in case I'm missing a bargain *blush* so might try to work on that ...Part time GCer, NSDer, Comper and (Bad)FlyladyA big shot is just a little shot that kept shooting ...0 -
Been to Mr T today - spent £3.56, more than planned, but saw they had sesame seeds cheaper than I've seen them recently, also porridge oats seemed OK at 57p for a kg.
Still within budget though.
Will cook later using what we have, once I've had a ferret around to see what's there. Like others, I enjoy that challenge!Keeping two cats and myself on a small budget, and enjoying life while we're at it!0 -

just popped into the supermarket today for a handful of things and came out 120 F lighter
.
on the positive I got some good reductions and most of the stuff has gone into the freezer for future meals. I also got lots of milk and bread (and bread flour to make bread) so I shouldn't need to go again except for fruit and veg.
So the total is now at 248, just over a quarter of the month's money and 5 days down.Trying to keep in budget.
