Friday I bought bread and some reduced things at the Co-@p and can't remember how much it was. I know it was under £10 because I got change. But DH and I went for a curry on the way home. He paid and used the change as the tip. So I'll call it the round £10.

Yesterday was a NSD and I intend today to be one too. I made a tuna pasta bake that the recipe said was for 3, expecting DH to do his usual scoff monster, but there was plenty for both of us and enough to have with some extra veggies tonight. Mmmm.

I love store cupboard cooking. though it does tend to make comfort food.

Spent £118 so far this month so on target to make it - keeping my fingers crossed, and, more importantly,my purse closed!!

Hi all has anyone ever had shopping from ocado, my order online was cancelled friday and was given the option of making a new delivery slot. Then the order arrived and it gave me the option online of asking for a refund for certain items which I did as freezer stuff wasnt delivered as it was a 2nd attempt delivery and the banas were bruised and spring onions were old. Had an email to confirm my list of requested refund items and they will get back to me in 72 hours. Looked again at my ocado account and its saying my delivery hasnt been delivered and to arrange redelivery and they havent taken any of the money out of the bank? has anyone else had this situation or know if ocado usually take the money straight away as i know tesco and waitrose deliveries normally do and also the driver didnt ask me to sign anything? x

Wow, that's outrageous! What's the betting that in the next few weeks they will suddenly put it on 'special offer'.

Haven't had a chance to catch up on the thread, have been gone a few days, but have updated my sig with spends.

Looks like it should be a successful month, currently on £223 and budgeted 300 so really please, have one more shop to do, going to do an online one to be delivered tomorrow.

Printing off recipes and stuff today to come up with some new meal plan ideas!

I noticed this week MrT prices had gone up alot aswell. Looks like unless the snow clears this week i`ll be shopping there again:(, as Asd@, A!di and L!dl are about 20-30 minute drive from me.
