    my food bill is going to increase but I have to remember how good I'll feel on the day....

    I've seen people on MSE argue that healthy eating is cheaper than 'junk' food but when peppers are 86p each...I tend to disagree!!

    Salad stuff is expensive aswell, or, at least it seems to be expensive becasue you need fresh stuff every few days!

    Good luck with SW! :D

    Thanks Angelic. Trouble is, I enjoyed snacking on fruit but it ain't cheap..... I agree with you, although making most things from scratch is cheap the cost of fruit and veg is too much so it's easier not to!!

    I think that statement is true if you live in a big city or have access to somewhere with a market but where I live there's only 2 places to get food and they are both really over-priced.

    Thanks Angelic. Trouble is, I enjoyed snacking on fruit but it ain't cheap..... I agree with you, although making most things from scratch is cheap the cost of fruit and veg is too much so it's easier not to!!

    I totally agree, like Angelic said you have to buy new stuff every few days or it goes skanky, chocolate bars last ages :rotfl: the initial outlay isn't too bad but it's maintaining it thats expensive! I tend to just stick with apples because they last ages in the fridge but the things I really like are berries and grapes which are expensive and don't last :(

    I'm just all excited about the new Gary/Robbie collaboration :D:D:D:j:j:j:D:D:T:T:T:j:j

    Video is funny and song is nice (not amazing) but makes a lot of sense if you listen to the words can be found on Robbies website here if anyone else is interested :ohttp://www.robbiewilliams.com/news-blogs/shame-video-premiere

    I can't wait for the tour, only thing is I'm dreading trying to get tickets it's gonna sell out so fast :( Do you reckon I could get away with booking out a computer room and getting the whole class on ticketmaster for me? :cool:
    Padding just 1p today, can you tell it's nearly payday :p

    Have a good day all xxx

    Morning All!

    It is HORRID here today. Rained all night and became very heavy, with some thunder and lightening around 6am this morning! I got up at 7, no point laying there awake and annoyed! lol. Just as well as there is a small leak in the roof :( Still raining now too. :(

    Anyway, welcome to Lewis! And well done on taking the first step towards debt freedom.

    Pyscho - Eating healthily isn't cheap! I agree also. But, it is better for us in the long run, so I say it's worth it. You've also reminded me that I need to order the food shop! (thank you - I had forgotten!)

    Also made another PAD to the savings jar of €25 which is 20.44 GBP

    I got a special mention for yesterday! Yay!!!! :D

    Have a good day all!

    xx
