Planning g a low spend food shoo this weekend. We were going to do an online shop last week which would have been a £40 minimum spend but dh managed an @ldi shop for less than £20. Hopeful he can do the same again this weekend.

Food and petrol spends updated, they're really creeping up this month! We have got into the bad habit of wine at the weekend too so need to stop that and go back to just having something fizzy in a wine glass! We justified the expense this week as we have been offered a refund on our holiday :j
Am hoping today will be relaxing. Have washing to catch up on as its been on the linein all weathers. It currently needs to de- ice before it is anywhere near ready to bring in! Dh almost volunteered us to wash and dry 22 men's football kits too so am glad he found an alternative!
Water bill has come in under budget so need to get that paid today and transfer the money from bills account. That will help keep the account in credit until refund comes through or payday arrives!
Also think I have a couple of y0ugov surveys available so must remember to check!
