Went to the local food store. No "yellow-sticker" reductions purchased.
Consequently, no food spends this weekend. There might be a gap now of 6 to 9 days before any more food is bought.0 -
Eek! We’ve just bought half a lamb
I thought we’d order it and have a few weeks to make freezer space but DH is picking it up on Friday so I really need to use some stuff up. I thought I’d been doing alright but I can see my freezer hoard has been creeping up without me realising
I need this thread to keep me motivated!
