Hi Everyone :j
Could I please join in with your fab challenge?
I've just returned to 12hr shift work so it can be tricky getting the luch thing right (and prepared 1st thing in the morning before an early shift!)
I would like to think that I will only buy 2 lunches this month, the rest will be from home.
Today I had leftover Turkey & Bacon Pie, I can't look at another turkey for at least a year :rotfl:
Good Luck Everyone xx0 -
Please I can I join, I have just done a monthly shop so put me down for NIL !!
Thank you

Hello.
I'm new to this one. I'm going to aim for 0 lunches bought at work and I'm vowing to not buy breakfast from work either. I'm also going to try and use leftovers to make my lunch rather than buying stuff (no crisps and chocolate bars brought from the supermarket).
I'm also off to make stilton and brocolli soup!:pMoney situation: August low point -2883.24
September low point -2840.85 (it's going in the right direction):o October low point -2564.98
