  • Previous poster has given excellent advice. My only extra suggestion would be to keep that list you have updated, but put the items into headings e.g. veg,proteins,carbs,sauces e.t.c. then you will see more easily where you might be running low. You can get preprinted organising lists from OrganisedHome.Com- make it a game how little you can spend- it seems to be working for me as I used to spend loads on shopping in the supermarket. B.T.W I've also cut my supermarket bill by stopping all my various cleaning products and just buying stardops.

    Inspiremetosave - I knew Lynzpower would come up with the goods! :T

    Start a spreadsheet with your storecupboard/fridge/freezer contents, mealplanner, favourite recipes, shopping lists. Over time you should build up a list of favourites that you could add to as you build confidence, i.e. bolognaise, lasagne, korma, chilli, stew, casseroles, stir frys, etc. Let us know how you get on this week.
