    I've not updated this list for weeks. Sad to say some items are still not used up. I am determined that they will be used up soon even if I throw them all out! That will be the last resort though.

    I've fallen off the wagon lately and gone back to my old habits - sad

    I had a look at my grocery budget which I set in Jan for the year, worked out how much I spent and its brought me back to reality with a massive jolt.

    Hopefully by posting daily I'll get back on track and stop spending.

    OUT: Raita (not sure of spelling), with HG (home grown) cucumber, HG onion, HG toms, LO yogurt.
    salmon, LO venison, HG veggies,
    HM lemon ice-cream, HM brandy snaps.

    No space created today !!!!

    I was just about to do an online grocery shop when I read your posting. I've enough in to feed the five thousand.
    What is it with me? I have to get this grocery spending urge under control. I'm normal with everything apart from food..........
