  • Good point amber. I really don't get the people who stock pile pet products when they don't have pets then complain that they are running out of stockpile room.

  • I think it's hilarious when folk stockpile pet stuff and they have no pets. I would probably still get it but would sell it off. Been looking for persil vouchers so I could make the most of the Morrisons offer but none appear to be available. Oh well I am still going to get 2 or 3 boxes as only £4.99 instead of £12.

    Anyway, first weigh in tonight and I lost an amazing 7lbs :j. Very happy with that. Only 49 to go before my holiday :p

    So I spent £3.10 on lunch. I had taken soup from the freezer but it was still totally solid at lunchtime and I didn't have time to defrost it and then cook it so I bought soup and a baked potato. Was delish. Then spent £48.50 on petrol. No other spends

    Very tired tonight so I reckon a bath and early night is on the cards for me. I have church tomorrow night and am then meeting a couple of friends. No cost so that's good. Hopefully NSD tomorrow but I have ordered a mixed box of fruit and veg so if that gets delivered then I will pay that.

    Amber I don't have a tesco near me and they seem to have all the excellent deals. I will however do my best to hunt down local bargains :D

    Jealous of your weight loss,went to see the docs today just for a general check over. Informed my weight is slowly going up(think my clothes agree with this statement) and that as I get older I don't need as much food(my stomach definitely doesn't agree with this), so advise from the docs was not to eat as much . :(x

  • Im trying to lose weight and I need to lose 2 stone.

    I was weighed last week at work. I probably need some scales so I can see how much I am not losing!

    well done on the NSDs!

    Woohoo I have a stockpile. £36 of washing powder for £9.97 :j. I am having such fun doing this shopping malarkey. I am saving so much money. These were reduced from £12 to £4.99 in Morrisons today. I bought 3 so £14.97. I had a £5 money off voucher so I paid £9-97 :D. Fabulous stuff. Bought another £3 worth of stuff as well.

    I also passed my first uni assignment so I am doubly delighted with myself. Not much time for updates I'm afraid. Was out at a friends and not long home. I'll catch up tomorrow xx
