    NSD for me today. Nearly spoiled by ordering more paint for the kitchen but held back just in time and will order tomorrow instead, as I am also doing a veg top up shop.
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

Spent £7.94 on bread, milk, fruit, sandwich meat, wraps and apple juice. Oh and some icing sugar (ED is baking at school) and some mince meat for sheperds pie tomorrow. If i'm up to making it. :(
