I'm eating out of the freezer and cupboards challenge

[Deleted User]

Morning all.

Dinner last night sort of went to pot again - DM went back to bed not feeling well, think she went out in the garden to do a couple odd jobs and landed herself back at square 1!
Made dinner for myself while she slept it off, she's a bit brighter this morning again thank goodness.

Ready meal out of freezer defrosting for after work late tonight and probably pasta for dinner - got a packet of cheese & ham filled tortellini in the fridge that was reduced to 73p in the local shop the other day

What is this snap and save everyone's warbling on about?

Is it the same as TCB? I signed up for that in November and nothing of mine has tracked, I get the clicks to merchants and even when I go through the troubleshooting page everything works fine. I have to put in claim after claim after claim, so I'm thinking of giving it up.

I'm too late to join in with the £10 challenge, but I've just had a £15 voucher through the post for Mr T if I spend £100. I've looked at my vouchers and have another £5.

So I am going to challenge myself to one shop online in March to the value of £100 which would actually cost me £80, 20% saving, I know it's not a megga saving against what some of you do, but for me it would be a great saving. Must include all dogs, cleaning and toiletries. It would also let me claw back some of my overspend I have had this month.

Wish me luck - I think I'm going to enjoy this challenge, off to meal plan. even down to the last carrot!!

Jelly Biactol - well done indeed and well impressive. :T

NSD for myself, got the Kleenex wipes (for free) and a waste of time.
Spent 60p on 4 tins of potatoes for foodbank, just to get wipes through the till.

Pork casserole was better than expected as the frozen diced pork did not look great.
Stir fry tomorrow.

Just under £4 to last the week and only 2 days to go. :j
I'll add Feb spends up tomorrow, but between £90 and £100 I think and it's been the shortest month!!

Evening all, hope your all well.

Katscorner, hope your oh finds another job. Wish him the best of luck.
Jelly biactol, well done you, that's impressive now !!.

Well food today was cereal for brekkie, lunch was soup and dinner was lasagne ( I had it ) lidls fresh one far better than aldis, with salad and chips. Youngest dd didn't eat the lasagne she had ham as she said I'm not eating that it could have horse in it, told her it didn't but she was having none of it !!!. It's like when she was about 5 and decided she wasn't eating beef anymore as were we lived there was cows in the fields and in the buildings at the top off the road and she could be eating one. She's still not keen on eating beef.

Well it's been a nice day here today, was thinking might go to Costco at the weekend and stock up on meat from there, will wait and see. Catch up tomorrow.
