Many thanks to everyone for their onion tips, :T:T but can I ask what shop Rosspa is please? Not sure we have one of those near us - the only conclusion I could come up with was Sp*r?

Helen Jelly, have already said that I don't mind a number as just grateful for you running this site,:T but also wanted to say that like others not really worried about a list at the front as just keep an eye on my own budget really (but still interested in everyone else's throughout the thread and how we are all getting on:D)

Rosspa is online shop.

Haven't tried them yet but have been looking at their site and it looks quite good. Will do a comparison with MrT when I next need to do a shop.

wasn't gonna report these but need to stop being so naughty! £1.13 on 2 bags of crisps last night and £2.70 tonight on a chip with kebab sauce! naughty girl!

Only a couple of small spends so far. £3.15 for milk and bread flour from L1dl and £2.26 for a mountain of reduced sausages at W@itrose butchers counter. Might need to go to Sainsbobs tomorrow though as I need sour cream and L1dl or Ald1 don't stock it. I'm going to try to eat from the freezer most of the week.

Budgets noted to post 195 - I'll update the front page later

I was having a little think [DH says thats always dangerous lol] I have to write down everyones name and then their budget and then go to my first post and change/add everyone on, the writing part takes ages!! so I was trying to think how to make it quicker/easier and the only way I could come up with is to give everyone a number instead of your name i.e. Helenjelly £250 would change to 75 £250 - saves lots of time when I'm writing loads of names down - can anyone see any probs with that or is it a carp way of doing it or if you prefer to keep your name then that is soo ok with meQUOTE}

Thanks



Btw, does anyone know how you can mark what you last post was that you read as I have spent the last 10 minutes trying to find out where I left it last? Thank you

21 pages,? I make it 11 someone posted how to alter this but I cant remember who or how.

Stopped in at Waitrose today.

Got a bit carried away with fancy butters, flavoured vinegars...... and popping candy (which I absolutely have not been just eating today :A) and gold leaf and valrhona chocolate

Also got scampi, some steak and loads of other bits and pieces.

Total added to signature.

you're on 40 posts a page the same as me. the site default is 20, but it can be changed in one of the options screens

Spent £25.98 today plus the £15.39 spent on meat the other day brings my total this week to £41.37 leaving me with £8.63 for the rest of the week.
