    Will be another NSD today taking me to 19/20 for the month. That elusive 20th just won't happen again this month as need to do some shopping tomorrow. Maybe I'll have better luck next month with it being a 31 day month rather than a 30 day one, LOL!

    So blown!!!

    Made sure I made the effort to walk a bit farther to Aldi, as I really need to get a grip now. Spent £6.49. Also had to buy a condolences card for £1.35... not a good thing to have to do. Can't make the funeral as I found out about my relative's death too late. :(

    Not much toothpaste left - on the free samples, but I have enough now until payday (tomorrow! :))

    Kicking myself that I bought cereal though and then forgot to make up a packed breakfast this morning. :(
    Keep reading books!
    July grocery challenge START: £150.
    total SPENT £127.53, REMAINING £22.37.

    Decided to go shopping last night instead of this morning as it is always a rush on Thursday as I go to slimming world first, then do shopping; rush home to put everything away and have lunch and then have to go and pick DH up from work which means leaving home about 2.20pm so it's very tight as it's usually about 1.15 by the time I get home!

    DH was very good and didn't pick up anything which wasn't on my list - that's a first:j.

    I'm declaring my April figure as £201.55/£250:j. The extra will go into savings! Didn't make my 20th NSD so that elusive last NSD didn't happen again. Must try harder in May.

    Last shop this month done today and it came to £28.08 which brings our total spends to £172.14 out of a budget of £250.
    Both of us have been under the weather this month and so not eating as normal but even so I am glad to see that our spends of fruit & veg is the highest.
