  • 1st December - Milk 89p - a LSD


    Must keep a record of spends and set a grocery budget this month! as inspired by Ab_Saver!


    Going to try to eat out the Fridge/ stocks until 4th - But I imagine another milk run will creep in.


    No buying any Cleaning Products or Toiletries this month for me - going to start the use up prior to the xmas haul of Soap and Glory I hope to get.

    All sounds like a plan! Christmas toiletries could keep you going for a while!

    P.S. The challenge is one of the pinned threads on the old style board if you find yourself in need of inspiration :)

    Aww no... sorry work seems to be making you ill. Hope the work improves and you feel better soon. It's hard to make time to look after yourself when you are rushed off your feet!

    Re: bank holiday work - I feel your pain (I'm working Christmas eve, day, and new year bank holiday Monday). Hopefully it's like my workplace where we are 'all in it together' on days like that.

    Sounds like you need some advent chocolate :)

  • HI Sam. Sorry to hear you aren't well. Must be the time of year as I've got a stinking cold too.

    Oh how I love Soap & Glory. I've been dropping hints to my mum but I think it is a bit out of her price range.

    Hope you manage to get some time off over Christmas to recuperate.

    Take care and have a relaxing Sunday.
