Cutting down our Grocery Bill

Hapless_2

• £29 box of persil how many washes does it say on the box? We spend £8 on a 50 wash box.

On the bag it says 120 washes, but as it's pro grade (made for farmers clothing) I get far more out of it. You can also get 90 wash boxes which are more common, I think our local farmer store doesn't carry the 120 wash anymore which is a shame.

But I have found one which deliver although delivery is costly.

argghh my just typed a long reply and lost it.

So in summary: -

• From Monday we are going to keeping our receipts for 4 weeks and see how we can cut down.
• As for natural cleaners, we have tried Soda Crystals, and will most certainly look at taking this further.
• Home made bread may be worth a look at for us, 1 loaf a day would be ample.
• £29 box of persil how many washes does it say on the box? We spend £8 on a 50 wash box.
• Homemade Yoghurt?!?!
• Kids love their Cereal, they mainly eat Own brands like Wheatabix type stuff and smart price cornflakes. They do east toast or porridge if we are out though.
• The eglo looks ace, would take a while to make its money back though

Oh and thanks for all the advice keep it coming.

Yoghurt - Easiyo or make your own? (merged)

Yogurt in slow cooker?

Yogurt without a starter


Sounds like you have a plan! :T :T :T
