July 2015 Grocery Challenge

Spent loads today and am now up to just over £97 and we're only just over a week into the month. Had actually planned to spend a bit more today and top up on meat on the 3 for £10 deals at Morries as I have a £5 off £40 voucher but stupidly forgot to take the voucher with me. Fortunately it's valid until the 21st so can hopefully use it next week.

I've also had 6 NSDs so far this month which I'm pleased with. Aiming for 20 again although I don't seem to be making it but I will continue to try!

Spent £35 today at Aldo's, this included a bottle of Gin as a treat to sit in the garden with a G&T at the weekend.

Made 2 lots of fudge, a loaf of multi seed bread and a lemon sponge sandwich - that should keep'em happy till after the weekend

I have spent £16.43 today, which brings this week to £30.82. That is a little over what I would've liked, but I have had some huge bargains with that. I spent £13.45 in Tesco, and with that I bought 15 cans of lager, chocolate (£1) and loads of reduced meat and bread. I bought over £21 worth of meat and bread for just over £3.50. They're the best bargains I've had in a very long time. I even sent hubby an sos on the way home..........freezer needs space for incoming food!!

I still have £81.18 to last the rest of the month, which is £27 a week!

and sorry to ramble on, but my beautiful plan of work out what we need, order online from Mr. T and not actually go into a shop so make no unnecessary purchases is going out the window in a few weeks with their new minimum delivery order value, no way the two of us will hit a £40 minimum and get through it before it goes off!

Oh Gosh :eek: I wonder if that is just in England as not heard about it or had a text yet. Hope they don't do it here.


Managed another NSD here today.


Had chicken in mustard, dill and cream sauce with new potatoes, frozen peas and sweetcorn for dinner.


Hope you all have a fabulous Friday

If you log into the shopping site the message at the top of the basket should tell you. Mine now shows as
"£4 will be added at checkout to baskets under £25. Please note minimum basket spend will change to £40 from 23rd July 2015"

I got an email about it because I currently have a Delivery Saver Plan (that I'd already phoned to stop the renewal on).

Thank you Cheryl


Just looked and found the same message :mad:


I have a 12 month delivery plan with them - fortunately free because they offered me one when they closed their shop which was local to me.


Oh well - it will be a once every two or three weeks now and I will have to find somewhere else to buy yoghurt the weeks inbetween.
