Great haul Olliebeak1951 and some really good savings. This is one of the reasons I need to stay away from the shops! Am a sucker for a bargain.
Yesterday - In - two portions HM tomato soup
Out - half leg of lamb - tub of 'bacon bits' had no idea was in there
Plan is to roast the lamb today and use oven to make frittata using some of the bacon and the rest will be added to the LO mushy peas from tonight's dinner with potatoes for pea and ham soup for lunches.

Making small inroads......

Have a good day everyone

Could I tag along please. Obviously I will be shopping and restocking stuff as and when but I really need to get out of the habit of buying stuff and forcing it it into an already full freezer!
Tonight I will be taking out of the freezer a packet of marinated pork steaks for son and husband, a frozen stir fry sauce (if I can find it). Out of the fridge will be some broccoli, mini corns, peppers and spring onions for a stir fry. Out of the cupboard will be some rice. Nothing going in , apart from maybe left over stir fry which I will have for lunch tomorrow.
