go on then I'm up for a challenge ! I usually manage to keep our weekly shop to £40 for 4 of us + dog. That includes some treats - biscuits, crisps. Some weeks I do more home cooking than others so the budget is approximate. Me & kids aren't fussy, it's OH who is !

Certainly,the shopping list will be posted on Sunday.Otherwise,watch the menu for a week,see if you like what you are reading,then maybe join in the following week.
The menu will be varied as much as possible.
Monday-Friday lunches will be on a packed lunch basis.
Hope this helps.....0 -
Alternatively, you can try Black-Saturn's Meal Planner - recipes and shopping lists are included. She feeds her family on a small budget, and this thread is great.

Will watch with interest and then maybe join in the following week.
I usually spend about £20 a week in the veg shop so will be interesting to see what the meals consist off.
I know some of the recipes on Black Saturns thread are yum!0 -
Will watch for a week but sounds really good
