Our cupboards are well stocked too, and my new freezer has a good few bits in. I seem to have rather a lot of Tesco Value biscuits for some reason too, but they'll get eaten!
I wrote a quick menu plan for the week, so haven't bought much extra, but still spent about £50. Mind you, I won't need to buy much next week, just fruit, veg and another pack of mince. I know I spend too much for just 3 of us, but I can't seem to get it down much more.
Really pleased as 2 of the items Ilisted on Amazon earlier today have sold. So they're all packed up ready to go on Monday. I have a cupboard under the stairs absolutely full of stuff to get on ebay, loads of our old summer clothes. Think I'll go buy some good batteries for the camera on ebay now, then I can get taking photos soon, ready for this summer challenge! Must fill the 5 weeks with things to do, as we're not away this yr:(I really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
We're only away for a couple of days (and even then I'm taking the laptop
), so we'll be around too Milly

Wow! You are steaming ahead. I have barely woken up (slept in till nearly 10 as didn't get to sleep until 2am! :eek:) - and have got as far as email and MSE! Weather here is awful too so no chance of my outdoor things today. But must get on. DS's performance sounds fab - very creative!0

Back from friends house via Tescos, I spent 27.00 but 3.50 of this was one of the other design of the Cath Kidston bags which I'm going to ebay as they're going for about 7.00
I also bought loads of cake decorations as someone on the grabbit board posted that they're reduced, we now have every type of sprinkle / flower / ball / jelly diamonds known to man, we had to buy some more marharine as ds wants to make tonnes of cakes now :rolleyes:
They were all reduced to between 12p - 22p a tub, BARGAIN!!
, especially with ds birthday at the end of the month
I also got a pack of candles / holders reduced to 17p
