Can't remember if I officially joined in this one but I aim for £250 a month and have £45 left - our month runs 24th - 24th so sometimes I'm on the wrong thread
A NSD today we have Moroccan chicken and pepper rice for tea (freezer chicken & onions/peppers from the fridge) had the SC on today making beef casserole so one for through the week and one to freeze. I had some YS need to use and got a great mixed veg pack at mr m the other day for 60p - with and added spare pepper, onion and a tin of butter beans I can make it stretch out.
Hope everyone is having a good dayLiving the simple life0 -

A fiver in the land of ice on frozen veggies and then £2.60 at the market on dog treats for the rest of the month.
I'm racing through my budget this month, but I think I've now got pretty much everything we could need other than a few top ups of milk and yoghurts. Oh, and dog food. We always seem to need dog food!0 -
