Morning folks, it's amazing how much more you watch what your doing reporting back on here! I was stressed at work yesterday so bought a bacon roll, fruit slice and diet coke which was £3.40, then popped into co-op on the way home for chips, potatoes, ice cream, and strawberries, Cheerio to another £10.40, that's taking my total so far to £83.80, I will need to pop in for milk and bread and yogurts this morning, but that will be all!
Have a good day!

£8.10 in Sainsbugs yesterday on baby milk and then decided to do food shop yesterday instead of today as my OH is working today so can't take me and I've planned to go to town with my nan and get Jakey some of his birthday presents. Anyhow I spent £19.56 in Aldi, shouldn't need to spend any more on food this week although if I do it will just be milk, fruit, fresh stuff etc.


So £27.56 to add to my total x


36.02/200

I got the 1 litre Spry for £1.50 at Sainsbobs recently.

That seems to be usual for it. the offer of 2 x 2 litres for 4.00 works out 1.00 a litre so pretty good I think.

They were just available for our store not nationwide.

What a shame! Thanks though (I will lobby my store immediately).

£6.62 spent yesterday on just a few top up bits.
Found a carrier bag full of 1lb bags of rhubarb in the bottom of my chest freezer yesterday. Picked some raspberries from our allotment and made a raspberry and rhubarb crumble. We had that for dessert yesterday. There is enough for today as well.
Lasagne for tea tonight so will be able to get some baking done while the oven is on.
Really do need to try and save all we can this month.

Thanks - I have been to Mr A - got the 2 x 2 litres of oil. I won't be buying oil for ages!

Needed to pop to Sainsbugs this morning as DH used the last of the cheese yesterday and the last of the ham this morning for his sandwiches for work.

Was good and only spent £4 - £3 for cheese and £1 for some salami so that's enough for his sandwiches for the rest of the week. As I'm at home I'll just have what I can find in the cupboards or fridge. This morning I made a crustless quiche so that'll do me for lunches for the rest of the week with a bit of salad or pickles.

Been really good so far. We've got a freezer full of food, lots of planned meals and we have spent £108.54 so far. x

Fruit and nut granola with dried apricots, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds and dried blueberries mixed with a forrest fruits yogurt and a banana for breakfast. Yum yum.

Planning to do a veggie cottage pie for dinner - mainly so I can teach my OH how to do it next week when I'm away so that he doesn't live off of toast and cereal :rotfl:

Should be no spends for me today unless OH spends anything at work.
