Morning All, just popped in to update my sig. I ran out onions so went to L!dl for their weekend special, so that's another 0.34p spent, I honestly did walk out with just onions .

Just another 7 days to go, fingers X they are nsd's, I'm determined to be under my target by at least £10 which I'll then use for any bulk buys next month :cool:.

Good luck, everyone, keep a tight hold on those purse strings.

Just changed sig to reflect £4.50 at Co-*p yesterday on bread, fruit and veg, cat food. Also just paid Jan tax bill - just about cleaned out and no income on the horizon, now dependent on DH's income which doesn't cover even our direct debits.
Glum. Very glum.

blackandwhitebunny, your Dorset Apple Muffins are in the index

JIL I've added your Cheese and nut loaf too

I'm sure I've missed a recipe somewhere, so if you've posted a recipe and not seen it mentioned please let me know; I suspect the missed one is between my post # 2368 and now, off to have another check through
