Hi all,

Declaring £278/£300 - pleased with that, though it would have been less if I had not bought several,bottle of booze throughout the month, and avoided the bakery section of Mr L on a Sunday morning.......

See you in the August GC

Off to catch up on the next month now.

Evening all :hello:


Had my butcher's order come through today and it was £80.70. So that means I have overspent my bulk buy budget by £22.55, but hope to pay it back by end of August fingers xd.


Didn't spend anything else today and hope for NSD the morrow. I won't declare until then so I don't put the kybosh on it.


Hope you all have a fabulous Friday

Yesterday's shopping was a little lower than usual due to having picked up more on Tuesday than usual, but did include most of the meat for next month. Spent £18.44 between Icel*nd & Mr T bringing my total for the month to £263.69 - I've also managed 21/20 NSDs:j, including today where I won't be going near the shops! so have finally achieved more than my target - 1st time this year!

In theory August should be better as all meat needed is already in the freezer!

See you over on the August challenge.

Hi Lynne

I was kind of here in mind but not in person.

Im declaring £379 odd. I was sub-conciously aiming for £300. I moreorless made it as the surplus £79 was an Easiyo and Approved Food order, which I class as bulk buys. Hopefully, I will stay on target for August .... famous last words.

I am declaring a spend of £472.87/£400 in July.

Must do better next month!

Last spend of £22.55 for July ... Good month as I've been using up freezer/cupboard stores ... Hopefully I can keep it up as I've only got 2 weeks then I'm on holiday �� ...

Off to work out total for July x

Total spend £65.15 ... Yay well under budget !

Hiya all :hello:


Well done all those coming in under budget :T especially mumoftwins


I'm declaring at £181.41/£200 so that's £18.59 into the Bulk buy fund. This reduces the deficit there to -£3.96 which I should cover in August.


That seemed a really long month and glad it's over. Don't think the awful weather helped


The morrow I must finish my meal plan for August, do a shopping list and then go shopping.


Hope you all have a super Saturday and 'see' you all in August
