Final shop of the month in Lidl £35-31, had a £5 off £40 spend, hopefully this will take me well into June.

Hallo all,
Spending for the week totted up, £2.10 on bread, Ys salad and YS sausages, £4.90 on milk, YS teacakes and YS rolls, and washing capsules. Bigger shop of £10.48 on meat enough to last all next week and a cheeky pack of choc eclairs.
S That leaves me just over £7.00 for fruit and veg in the market tomorrow and will last until I am paid on Tuesday. So see you all over on the June thread.

I haven't been on for a little while but I've kept my receipts. A massive £336.36 added to my total :eek:

Failing miserably at this this year

I am currently overdue and baby (hopefully) coming shortly so I seem to have done some food hoarding for some reason. Apart from fresh milk/fruit/veg which should have enough food for at least a month.

Due to receive £90 of M&S vouchers shortly so we will use that towards food once we have more space

£215. Lots of life happened

Dusting myself off....

Got to go shops, D.I.L.s birthday next week so need a nice card, also went to food cupboard, no mayo, blast it.

Just sorted through my receipts for the month, total of £199.96 so far. I am torn between going shopping tomorrow for the following 11 days or trying to eek out what we have in until later in the week.
I am within budget by £50.04 for the month but if I shop tomorrow I will definitely go over.
Decisions decisions :think:

£11.41 in Waitrose and £3.55 on ice cream (woops!!) which makes £267.92/£250 so £ 17.92 over budget and probably not finished yet. The GC has certainly made me think my spending so I hope to do better in June.

Went a bit wild in the Isles at Lidl this morning, croissants stawberries, asparagus, lots of 'picky bits' - £17 on completely unnecessary food :whistle:

Makes me £8 over budget for May, but I'm not too upset.

June is going to be tough, the freezer and cupboards are a lot less full, so will need to top up, also need things like dishwasher tabs and washing powder - will try to be good....

See all you in June X
