My mum picked me up a FAB bargain at Makro yesterday! A 6.6 kilo turkey reduced to £5 from £33!
Spent yesterday butchering it up with a very long suffering hubby! Calculated should get 8 family of 4 meals from ithad to chop the carcass in half for stock, wouldn't fit in my slow cooker! Lol! Half came out this morning (gorgeous rich brown!) and got a bowl full of shreds for soup and the other half has just gone in for more stock and shreds.

Not going near the shops until Tuesday, when all I need to get is milk and eggs.
We are having another leftovers day today, using up the last of the Turkey and gammon made into a pie with beans and chips. I have prepared the pie and chips and DH is cooking tonight, he said I am not ot do a thing today as I have done too much over Christmas, which left me in agony.
I have made the gammon water into a lentil and ham soup and a pea and ham soup for lunches for next week.
Gammon with salad and piccalilli sarnies for lunch.
Lots of glorious money saving going on this weekBlessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

We are using up everything from the freezer, cupboards and left overs from Christmas this month so the food shop will be very small for the whole month.
Total spend since 30th December = £0 :jBlessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light
