Well done! Thanks for the Waitrose advice also. Sounds like it's a good one to try at certain times. Great deep discounting.

I went over in October, but and really going to focus in November. I have lots in stock, I just need to plan ahead. I have no idea why I am finding this so difficult.
Glad to have the company.

I keep amending my order (due wednesday) to add junk - cake and ready meals, then keep going back 5 minutes later to take them back out again :rotfl:

Haven't been out all day, and now have a doggy friend spending the night with me, so I will be nipping her out later on but at least I haven't spent anything.

I have had porridge for breakfast, toasted cheese sandwich for lunch and s&s with rice for tea followed by a couple of biscuits.

Quick update. Yesterday and today were NSD, so quite happy with that

Might need to buy some more eggs tomorrow though, we go through so many... nearly a dozen over the weekend alone
