Howdo. Spends in B&m on a couple of treats and some mini chedders for lunchboxes.
Also small spends in Asdo on Semi milk, rice milk and some squeezy yogurts again for lunchboxes.
My month will end this time on Sunday and I know I will have another spend yet on Saturday night as I have promised kids we can go to chip shop after we collect DD1 from her Beaver sleepover as she won't get home til late. Oh well, quite a lot in the freezer so hopefully next month will be ok.
Can't blimmin get onto Asda to place a click n collect though. Grrrr. Will be desperate for my shop by Monday! x0 -
