  • Hi and Happy New Year SF :)

    Another one aiming for a January health kick here - there are probably quite a few of us lurking! :rotfl:

    I guess less food/healthier food should technically mean less grocery spends too! ;)

    Ooh thank you everyone for the warm welcome :D I must admit to being a bit excited about this whole overpaying lark :o

    I keep thinking to myself "If we try really hard, we could do it under 10 years..." but that might be a bit mad :o:D
