fozziebeartoo

Since I have planned meals for the rest of the week and know what I will be using, I have settled up with SP whilst I had a bit of cash in my purse!

SP bought kitchen roll and bogof diet pepsi for £5.00 to add to stock.

Sallys Stores will be providing £9.50's worth of food so that's
a net £4.50 straight into my 3rd purse which now has
£62!! :T:T:T

I've not been spending much as you can see, I've been making my own bread/cakes / scones etc, from stuff I have in stock.
I'm also trying to use up as much as I can from the cupboards and freezer, I recently re-organised some of my cupboards and there was a few wee bits and bobs , approaching their use by dates.

I've updated my signature at long last LOL, not had a minute with DGD.

I'm so pleased you are all doing so well, I'm loving reading all the posts.

Hey all, think I did some good shopping today in Shoe5 and used my points!

Should be a profit of £7.04 when it's all been bought back! Plus used points so didn't technically pay any money :beer:

Lid1 must have heard your please, they have 100ml advanced whitening for 99p. It's £2.54 in shoes, so even on their 3 for 2 lid1 is cheaper

Ooh and loo roll is on offer in lid1 again 24 rolls for £6.99

You're all doing sterling work there ! I wish I was better at math, I rely on my calculator too much to do this. I did get Kelly's clotted cream ice cream in bulk for the freezer and also fed it duck legs from Morrisons and Waitrose again.

I just posted this on the Grocery board, thought it might be useful for SPers building up their stores!

Imperial Leather Handwash @ 66p Co-op
Co-op has buy 1 get 2 free on some Imperial Leather things.

Cheap handwash makes my hands sore so is a false economy for me, so checked my local (little) Co-op and while I would never pay £1.99 :eek: for one Imperial Leather handwash, I thought buying 6 for £3.98 ie 66p each, was a good buy!! :T

Receipt says total before savings £11.94
Your savings today £7.96
Balance due £3.98

Hope this helps someone else with delicate little handie pandies like me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
