Weekley Shopping and the Dreaded Offer Stickers!

Hi all,
Its not my first post but its my first with any real aim:rotfl:
When me and my wife do the weekley shopping we always try to stick to a £40 budget, its hard enough with the price of everything nowadays but theres always something on offer to make us buy on impulse, and like most people we fall for it every week and usually blow our budget out of the water, for example on monday i spent £110!:eek:
Anyhu, we usually shop at morrisonce but are swapping to tesco for the clubcard points and the days out you can get with them, having an almost 4 year old to entertain im sure it will be worth it! Does anyone else shop using Tesco Online and does it help avoid the impulse buying?
Thanks
Rob

Yes! I've started shopping online again now I have my own place, and it's so much easier! I put in all the things I need, and a few extras, then check before I go through checkout to see if I really NEED the extras, or if it's just a WANT. If it's a WANT, they go out, if it's a NEED, they stay. Mum and dad also shop online like this and it's so much easier for not impulse buying
Suffice to say, my shop this week is only £25 and itll last me a good week and a half before I need to shop again (apart from a few extras like fruit and veg) ** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.

Hi Rob.. I dont personally shop online but i did see the offer code for tesco the other day... XXAFFT If you spend £50, enter the code at checkout and it deducts £10 from your total. This will give you an extra tenner to get a few treats with.. FREEEE!!!! Its only valid if its your first online shop i think, but it is valid 'til 30th september.
