OK my freezer and stock cupboards are crammed full. I realise have spent a lot of money in the food in there. I want to save money by using these and only buy:
. Milk
. Fruit/Veg
. Bread
. Yoghurt
. Breakfast cereal (only have 2 unopened packets)
. Sandwich fillings (have one pack of ham in the freezer)
as these things I eat virtually every day
Until one of the following happens
. I ran out of food
. I have only fish fingers and cornflakes left.
It will be a challenge as I'm on weight watchers so I have to be extra creative to keep my points down.

My brother's moving in with his girlfriend and being replaced by someone else so instead of sharing 2 drawers in the freezer I will only have 1! So need to condense it down. I may need to buy potatoes to go with some of the stuff though. I rarely buy bread and milk - they tend to go out of date and mouldy, so my challenge is to eat things before they go out of date!!!
I see what you mean now, your brother and his g/f are moving in with you, that's why you have less room. I thought at first you meant he was moving out, and in with his g/f

He is moving out, we use to shop together, so we had 2 drawers between us. But somebody else will be moving in who I won't be shopping together with. So that means I will have 1 drawer, not 2. It will mean the freezer will go down more slowly though.
I can't afford to buy a freezer just for me lol. I'm moving out in less than 3 months, so will try and find a place with 2 fridge/freezers!
