March 2016 Grocery Challenge

so_very_confused

Beggining of the month went badly unexpected guests, ill health. So....thought I could pull it back for the last two weeks. Slipped twisted knee unable to walk, so no more convenience food, oh no we have moved onto takeaways.......I give up this month:eek:
Roll on April:)

Morning all
I'm still here and updating my sig I've just been quite busy so haven't posted properly for a while.
Still working on using up where I can and making the most of YS stuff so meal plan after I've done the Saturday shop where I get the reduced fruit and veggies.

Hope all are well.

A NSD day yesterday for me but I need to get a birthday card today so I'll go at reduction time and see if I can get some bargains for the freezer.

Hi ladies and gents,

Can I join you for April. I have a ridiculously overstocked cupboard/fridge and freezer and therefore I have set myself a ten/fifteen pounds a week budget for the month. I should only have to buy bread/coffee and some fruit and veg so hopefully I should be able to do this and not sacrifice quality food.

Thanks x

Spent £5.04 on YS bread, sausages and fish - taken off next week's budget but worth it. Will freeze it for later.

A spend of £12.70 today mainly on ys meat and fish for the freezer. I also stocked up on veg as MR M has bags of potatoes, swedes, carrots, onions, broccoli for just 28p :eek::j

Aldi has reduced all the above to just 25p :j That should help our budgets a little. I love a price war. I;ll stock up on them and prepare a load for the freezer.

Many thanks to the original posters :A
