    No online food grocery order this week and no desire to go out which usually involves to the shop(s). Want to reduce current food "stocks" considerably!

    Still making some progress in using up current "food stocks" but have not been out to any shops recently. Money spent on food has been "low" so far this month. The oncoming weekend may "tempt" me to shop locally. Otherwise, it should be next week when any food is acquired.

    The weekend local shopping only resulted in one food purchase (reduced price 75% off). Not going out much has meant using up current "food stocks" very well and has been very handy/money saving.
