    My first weekly shop of the month - bought fruit, veg and sandwich fillings at Aldi and the rests of my shoping at Asda. Bought seven chunks of reduced cheese - Parmesan, mature cheddar, Stilton and Wendsleydale - the use by dates are in December and January! I can't work out why they had been dumped in with the stuff that was due to expire today, but I'm dead chuffed they were.

    Total spend today of £29.59 - I've never spent so little before! :D

    Did my "big" top-up shop today so that's £29.31 spent, including £3 in Savers Stamps at M's to help pay for some Christmas presents.

    I got nearly everything on my list there so I won't have to wander round the supermarkets spending more money too :T Tomorrow I do need to go to Aldi for cat litter, but shouldn't need much more than that apart from milk and bread.
  • I can't believe I forgot to buy eggs!! And I need them :( Was hoping for a NSD today, oh well :o

    Not looking forward to going out in the rain with this awful infection.... However i do need strepsils to so I guess i'll be able to pick some up.

    So much for no spends as on split shift ... had to get ice cream (Friday is ice cream night), cheesecake as a treart for Sun, sliced bread and YS tube type yogs which I have froze fkr packed lunches. Will update tomorrow once I've check receipt, plus will have Mr T shop to add.
    Just caught up on the thread ... night all

    Yesterday and today, spot on £38.00 after promotions, subs handed back and moc.
    Forgot a few things, and tried to change it last night on my phone as finished work earlier than expected; but I was that tired I fell asleep whilst trying :D, so may need to do another small top up or minimum Mr T order for about Wednesday.
