    Managed to come in well under but have been using up freezer food and store cupboard - £105 :D


    However have not had to buy cat food this month - I usually buy a 5kg bag from online vets as puss is diabetic.

    So will reduce budget for next month - :j See you all on the next challenge.

    A very silly total of £66.49 for Feb, which makes £180.21 so far this year. Greatly helped by the huge donation of food from my stepdads freezer when he moved house! :) xx
    Trying to jump back onto the moneysaving wagon .... :cool:
