Comments

Hi everyone,
Just to let you know that the September 2011 Grocery Challenge is now up and running.
I apologise for the late start this month but zippy and I were trying to decide what to do in the absense of MRS MCAWBER who normally compiles everyone's budgets and totals. Unfortunately neither zippy or I are able to comit to it this month so if you feel that you could help out we would be very grateful if you would send one of us a pm.
Many thanks and good luck to everybody taking part in the challenge.

Morning all,
Seeing as my "month" runs from 15th to 15th I may end up being the only poster left for the August challenge! :rotfl:
So yesterday I spent £20.56 on cleaning stuff, toothbrushes etc in Wilko's. I've updated my sig and seem to be on target for budget.
Having said that, got a couple of daytrips with packed lunches planned and DS back to school next week to so going to have to top up all the packed lunch stuff.
