Hello everyone I hope you're all well :T Life caught up with me and I got naughty but I'm back
Have to admit I've been buying what I want when I want
Wife and mother :jGrocery budget
April week 1 - £42.78 | week 2 - £53.0524lbs in 12 weeks 15/240 -
For those that haven't saved the Weightwatchers coupon to their pc, get it done quickly in case the coupon is pulled.
Another on of those crazy freebies (meals) and coupon valid until 31/12/12.
The Greek style yoghurts are only £1 per pack in Asda, so 50p with coupon.

Thank you Lynsey - I managed to print one of these x0 -

Just went to Zumba and embarassed myself by throwing up in the toilets 3/4 through, after just saying to my instructor this is my 34 class this year. Didn't make it into the cubicle and some lady cleaned it up while I was praising the porcelain god in the cubicle! Went back to Mr s for some soup paid 19p each, along with the mini rolls, gonna go lay down, no dinner for me.
OMG you poor thing!!! hope you are feeling better
where will I find these coupons? are they from the in-store coupon?
Lynsey - have found lots of the coupons you have linked or mentioned but there are a couple I couldn't find - are these still available?
green's *** heinz 5 beans *** special k *** Tesco £2 off £20

Dinner was a bit disappointing - won't bother again - we all prefer our pork cooked in slowcooker
********
Still haven't finished in the kitchen :eek:
Full of cold, ears and throat killing, keep sneezing and coughing so have given up sleep!0 -
Hey donna and abby and Sequenna hope youre well!!
Ms night ryder- poor you - hope you feel better soon (moral of that story exercise is bad for you!)
Doing well at sticking to the thread title at the moment and using things up!
pack lunches into work all this week plus dinners out of the freezer/cupboards - am seeing a lot of pasta bakes, stews and casseroles in my future up till xmas! Am still hoping by a fluke of luck of sorts to come in at budget for xmas, we have Id say at least 1 month worth of dinners in so could be a couple of weeks of being creative but probably doable! need to keep a look out for decent coupons to help the cause!
Defrosting some casserole for tomorrow, gonna have an "instant freezer meal" hunt for tonight and then get out some of the reduced meat to make a stew from at the weekend!0 -
Morning All - managed to go back to bed at 5:30 and sleep for two hours so feeling ready to get my kitchen sorted once and for all - only have fridge, one drawer and under the kitchen sink to clear, good clean and that's my kitchen finished, orderly and ready to really start eating out of the kitchen cupboards and fridge/freezer!0

Thank you Deleted_User!
Do you freeze your pasta bakes?0 -
Morning all, hope all are well.
ms_night_ryder, hope you are feeling better.
NSD yesterday, just the freebies. lol
donnajt - the Tesco £2 off £20 are the ones Tesco post out - £3 or £2 off when you spend on a weekly basis. Great in combination with coupon usage. I'll be going this morning for bits, need to plan how to get to £20'ish to best advantage.
Heinz 5 Beans coupon was pulled a while back, Green's coupon HERE - page 39. Special K was the Facebook freebie promotion which has sadly ended, just using up last of coupons.
My £60 for 4 weeks budget may be "up the Swanee", Nestle Factory Shop is now online and my MIL (retired) has access, just ordered quite a bit of "Grade 2" stuff at silly prices, eg, 300g After Eight mints @ 48p per box. :eek:
Some silly coffee prices also, sadly only 6 of each items per order!!
I might have to use my Nectar point to stay in £60 budget now, though might just abandon the idea, I've done well this year anyway, but would like freezer space.
Making pizzas today with naan bread bases to use up mozzarella and soup to finish. Just toast for breakfast.

That's odd I shop at Tesco weekly as its across the road but have never had those coupons by mail - think I might email them and ask why?
Thank you for the link to the Greens coupon - actually emailed myself all the links to print later on today - although not sure if I will be buying for the sake of it iykwim!
OMG Nestle Factory Shop...dangerous! so glad my mil doesn't have access or I'd be making her move in with me lol. Have you got a budget for xmas? if so, couldn;t chocolate come out of that?
You can def do it - I cannot believe how little your weekly shopping comes in - completely in awe of you
I have been doing the naan pizza thing as our local farm shop sells 18 mini naans for £1 so picked up two bags last time we went - still have 22 left in freezer0 -
Good morning, I hope everyone is well and poorly people get well soon.
Helping my mum work out meal plans for her big freezer today as it's chocker!
Not planning on spending anything today
Back to work next week in spite of my bad knee, having nothing to do is driving me crackers!Hi, my name's Katy and I'm a (former) spendaholic! :wave:NSD - November Challenge - 7/105/11/12 - 7 Weeks to Christmas Weight Loss Challenge! 2/140 -
Morning, going to have toast in a minute for brekkie, lunch i don't know yet maybe boiled eggs and then for tea it will be pork chops, tatties and veg whatever comes out the freezer first. Donnajt maybe Lynsey means the vouchers you get with your clubcard statement which i am still waiting for think i am going to double the vouchers up for lego friends for my dd for xmas though still haven't decided. Has anyone bought one of the furbys i have seen one and thought about one of them aswell but i bought her a fidgit last year and she hardly looks at it, she loves sylvanian families but she has tons now so trying to limit that this christmas !!. I bought her a cabbage patch doll last week, though wondering if i bought it for myself as i had one when i was little, she's 9 so maybe getting a little old for it but you never know what santas going to bring !!. Have a nice day everyone.0
