Fantastic news Tilly :j :j :jMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -
So in a bid to lower our food bills Mr Watty and I went to Lidl today. It was on the way to the tip and we had a car load of stuff to go.
Its further for us to go - and - yes some of the veggies were cheaper but the selection was tiny and heavens it is summer and there was hardly any choice of veggies at all
A lot of stuff I buy a lot of they didn't stock (oat milk etc) and the teabags taste like cardboard. But I carefully made notes and came home and checked my bill against my nearest upmarket supermarket and - was astonished to see that the upmarket supermarket was actually cheaper on some stuff.
I fully accept that if I am prepared to buy factory farmed meat then the meat would be cheaper than my current mix of organic / local farmers but I'd rather just be veggie than do that. (And I'm not a veggie as I worked out it affects my mood too much to totally cut out meat and fish).
I was really surprised and somewhat disappointed.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
