Decided in the end that toiletries are going on another budget.

Now that that is out the way I have to report a £14.33 spend in Mr M's, but this was mostly topping up store cupboard basics and getting "bits" for the rest of the meals for this week.


Numpty me did forget to buy a tin of cannellini beans so ill need to pop out for those later!

Hello to all the March GC posters. :j

I completely failed last month so am signing up in March at £350. Will be topping up midweek packed lunches later but I am going to be good. I will be good. Promise. No mess ups. I love food shopping. I will be good.

Good luck everyone! x:T

Hi Everyone

Just declared on the February thread (14p under budget) and i would like to have the same budget this month of £240.00. Already spent a little but not got the receipts to hand. Planning on a big shop at Aldi using a couple of the £5.00 vouchers so expecting approximately a £100 spend. Good luck everyone x

Hello!

February was proper pants but I'm going to get my act together in March!

We've started shopping on Saturday morning in town rather than a Thursday evening supermarket shop. Still decided which butcher, baker and greengrocer I prefer but Home Bargains, Wilco's etc. make things cheaper.

Aiming for £50 a wk (including cats and housey stuff) so my target is

His missus: £250 for March
