Hi all

Thank you all so much for the good wishes i had a little boy named Oliver!

Back on the grocery challenge now although finding time to catch up on the thread is a little harder nowadays.

Had a couple of NSD so far this month, which i will add to the total and i've done my weekly shop at Mr Ms this week totalling £57.55 after using my £10 off voucher and i had a couple of different baby product vouchers. Hopefully will have a couple more NSDs this week and probably only do a small top-up shop for milk/bread etc.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Congratulations Suze, what a lovely name.

Well done you on getting organised so soon after haing your baby.
I recall total chaos and lot of chippy meals for weeks with my two.

Hi Bluegreen

Thanks for putting those recipes in the menu

I went to have a look at them, but I get a 'Ooops' message and the links don't work

NSD for me today - had the reduced ready made I bought from Mr T last night and housemate is cooking dinner this evening.

First visit to march thread after busy weekend - loads of supermarket visits for food/drink for dd's party but only declaring grocery purchases as took drink/nibbles from different purse ! Spend £52.32 between asd*/Morries and aldi - sig updated -fridge/freezer full of party leftovers so determined to stay in budget this month Saving for dollars for summer holiday -every little bit I manage to shave of the grocery budget, I convert to dollars and really feel I'm getting something back for all my supermarket hopping to save a few pennies:T

Evening! Popped on to report today's spend £23.33 at Mr M - I shall update my sig now. As usual, that's for everything this week with the exception of whatever we might need over the weekend, and that will be bought on Friday (poss. Thursday if anything happens). Tea tonight is going to be Mexican - either Fajitas or Enchiladas depending on what Mr KB fancies the most. I think it'll be enchiladas, although we did have them last week!

Have a lovely evening, everyone. Good luck with the challenge and keep on keeping on.

Got treated to lunch today!

Still had to do a small shop but that should last us until bigger weekend shop on Friday. But realised I was completely out of flour and down to last egg, so popped into shop and got that + some fresh veggies and fruit. Total just over £5.31

Spent £114.62 :eek:. We [STRIKE]should [/STRIKE]will only need to buy fresh fruit and vegetables and other basics for the rest of the month though which should be possible on the £15.58 left.

Have a vegetable curry in the slowcooker right now. Will be having that with rice for dinner tonight. The extra portions will be put in the freezer for a later date.
Have meal planned for the next two weeks so far and I am hoping to meal plan for the whole month by the end of the day.

£124.42/£140
