    Hi. I'm going to take the challenge as I have a monthly budget which I more than often don't stick to. For July this will be £100.
    This is just for myself and I have stuff in the cupboards and freezer.

    Shopping just done and came to £20.05 One or two items sold out in A!di so will get them at weekend.

  • Hello,

    Being right stupid, I've re-looked at our budget and we only give ourselves £275 a month of food for us and the dog, could I change my previous amount??

    Thanks

    we are up to £70 - just oven chips to buy end of the week when bf is back and then its only for keeping us going with fruit/salad and chicken.


    Just found a great little local green grocer has started doing deliveries and does a fruit/salad box for £15 jam packed with stuff and their produce is gorgeous so very excited to try that in two weeks when we are ready for a top up and will potentially be in the new house :)


    We've decided on a small BBQ/tea post baptism service either at ours if we are in the new house or at bf's mums if not. Might ask almost-sil if she can take me to the nhs staff shop for the meat etc as prices there are crazy good :)
