    bramble1 - I wish I could get just 1 freezer drawer emptied!!
    Well done, but aren't you a little scared?? lots of space anyway for fresh, new bargains ................. if wanted.

    Only spent £1.04 in Sainsbury's this afternoon. Loads of salmon again and pork mince for just 69p, but left it. Loads of fruit also, but not heavily reduced, so left that also.
    Did buy:
    Pack 6 large hot-dog rolls = 15p
    Pack Kipling Angel slices = 20p
    Spaghetti meatballs ready meal = 69p

    Ended up having hot-dogs and onions in the buns with ketchup and finished the Angel slices (6, but tiny). Froze the ready meal and have a good selection of ready meals now. Birds got rest of rolls.
    The steak and ale will now become tomorrows dinner. Ended up just snacking and not really that hungry. Never made scones.

    Maybe boiled eggs and soldiers tomorrow. lol

    The pork shoulder kebabs were so yummy! glad ive got 2 bags left! will make more, its more slices of shoulder than a joint, in a tray from costco, may get more on sat. also used up frozen peas and frozen farmhouse veg, need more peas and more oven chips as i have no more, got 1 coupon left, so hopefully get a big bag!

    May have a satsuma later, was thinking of opening the last pack of pancakes, may get more in costco, 3 packs for 2 quid odd, i do have a pack of baguettes left, but i am thinking i may have a sloppy joe for lunch, so those will be used, trying to think what else i could have in a sandwich tomorrow.

    Don't know what dinner is for tomorrowactually i have a tapas pot that has been in the freezer for ages, i'm deffo using that tomorrow for dinner or lunch, it needs to go, lol, we shall see, also need breakfast stuff, payday tuesday, yay! so my fridge will be packed to the rafters lol, but tbh, my freezer is still wuite bursting.

    wow soworried amazing bargains :)

    mmm Sunday dinner. I always have mine late because my OH works until 10pm. Was meant to defrost a chicken but forgot (Thomas just started crawling, he's fast!) so we're having gammon steaks instead.

    Sequeena thank you so much for thinking of me. I did get some of the Moo offer from Tesco last week when I visited my mother. I'm seeing her again Friday so I'll pick up some more because I didn't realise the offer was still on ! I'll be able to get a stash :)

    Not sure whether Thomas is old enough for this, but I spotted Thomas the Tank Engine organic pasta shapes last week - and bought some for OH !

    Hadn't seen the organic couscous I will look out for that. Would be really useful for OH for a quick lunch at work.

    I'm living on prosciutto and salad atm but getting out smoked salmon from the freezer for tomorrow as a change. I reckon I'm still losing weight cos I can pull the size 14 trousers off my hips now lol.

    Missing OH he's not back till Friday.
