    I'm on 3 nsd for July so far yay! I've just added another Mr S spend though. I needed to stock up on fruit and veg because my kids are eating me out of house and home these holidays. I also got some yellow stickers- chicken katsu curry with 50% off for a treat instead of a take away and 2 packs of pork sausages for 55p each. I bought a breville halo health fryer this week so I bought a big bag of potatoes for home made chips and wedges. I need to get a few bits today but trying to keep costs down for my big shop tomorrow!
    Hope everyone is doing well on the challenge!

    Just spent £13.52 on the weekly top up shop, so plenty under the £20 budget.

    That brings this week to £14.39. Leaves £13.61 for the rest of the week :)

    Decided to try the new Lidl which has opened near me and spent a total of £21.92 but nearly £12 of that was for t-shirts so not from the Grocery budget. Also spent just over £9 in Morries so a total of £19.11 today for the GC.

    Spent a bit more than I wanted to this week but have got in some store cupboard stuff including some wholemeal bread flour which I'd run out of. Planning on making some rolls for our weekend away - will use a mix of WM & white.

    Got a till spit for a £5 off £40 shop from Morries so planning to try and do a big store cupboard shop alongside a "normal" shop on Thursday to try and use it. If I can't make the £40 (using MySupermarket) then I won't bother using it.

    Spent £8.68 yesterday on a few bits so total now £35.00
    Will be shopping tomorrow morning. Tonight we are using some of the frozen pulled pork which I made earlier on. DH is having his on a couple of baps, some hm coleslaw and a couple of hash browns. I think I will crisp mine up in a frying pan along with some mushrooms, onions and courgettes.
    MARCH £62.38/250
  • We have succumb to pizza tonight, but we have shop brought pizzas and cheesy sticks along with one or two other things for a total of £12.44.
