    I was going to start the April budget this weekend, but next month and the month after are going to be real humdingers.

    So I am going to eke March out to poisson d'avril precisely.

    Good evening everyone.

    I am popping in to declare my final spends for March. I spent £31.35 and another £2.67 on things I forgot:rotfl:

    so I have come in under budget, but don't have any food to speak of in my stores or freezer, so will have to build up for April. My new month will start tomorrow, and I have my Ald* vouchers handy, so will plan my menu and shopping list.

    Well done everyone here's to another good month!

    Didn't manage to get on yesterday after I'd been shopping but have now added my spend of £22.97 to my signature. Most of this was in Mr Ms as I had a £5 Match & More voucher to use by this weekend - I don't use Mr Ms very much apart from buying petrol!

    Total so far for March is just over £204/£250 so doing OK but still one more shop to go this month on Tuesday but that shouldn't be more than £15-£20.

    £50.87 this week and signature updated. Just making some soup for the weekend as the weather looks as if it will be cold and miserable.

    Got to really watch it now these final days of the month!

    I spent £12.15 in Lidl, and ordered for about £25 food & drink on Ocado. That should last me until Thursday and bring me just within budget. Come on payday!
  • Hi everyone, spent £2.96 - which leaves me £3.51 to last 'till Tuesday.
