    No it's not just you, I've tried explaining it to my mum and sis, they just glaze over and think I'm mad even though they moan about how much things cost. My sis was struggling a few months ago, 2 little ones to feed, hubby out of work, I offered to take her shopping, told her to send me her list and I'd sort it out for a comparison shop... Not interested:eek: :(

    As for my hubby, he doesn't come shopping with me because he gets annoyed that I scan anything he picks up and puts in the trolley, he appreciates that I am trying to save us money but every now and again he has a go at me for spending so much time compairing shopping and writing lists etc so now I do it on my phone in the bath!!

    I guess it's finding a balance, you can't let the addiction of shopping take over, quality time together is as important as making ends meet.

    I hope you find the balance:)

    Think it's the 10s in the nutrigrain 2 for £3. Not the box of 6. They show multi for me on msm. Hth
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Nenen believe me the elite make a massive difference to the amount I spend every week, my shopping bill has halved and we have better food and very full cupboards. my dds dont live at home and we also treat them with bags of goodies. At first it takes a while to get in the swing of things but eventually it takes less time but it is defiantly worth it.
    plus I have made some good friends and have lots of fun x
    and with regard the familys comments I gave up explaining to mine, just let them enjoy the fruits of the elites labour..

    I agree. Just dont tell them what you are doing. You will soon get the hang of it, but like anything else, it doesnt come instantly

    Imagine how much shopping you could get the elite way for the same amount as you spent in morries today :cool:

    I gave up trying to explain it to my lot a long time ago. Misery Guts gets now why I do it, and he'll glitch if I am there with him to explain it to him step by step

    Nenen, it definitely does make a difference, especially if you have a T near you. Just search back for posts by MKS to see how much meat they end up giving away. We're having free roast pork again tonight.


    On the spelling and grammar thing, I do notice the mistakes and cringe at some of them, but then I work as a proof reader. When I'm on here I'm not working (although I sometimes should be :)). As long as the message can be understood, all is well.
