    Got to do an Aldi shop this morning but will hopefully still be under budget. I'll add up when I get back and then start prepping like a loon for June!

    Had to buy DS milk so another £10.45 in Tesco, need to add it to my sig then I am off shopping. I have decided to start June today and carryover my May surplus so I have a little extra but without it costing any more.

    NSD today. So £256.56 for May. Helped a lot by me being away for a week �� Overall 40.72% of budget out of 35.93% of the time. Improved slightly. Hoping for even better in June. I'm away for another week, and I foresee a lot of salads and fewer puddings. Good for the wallet and the waistline.

    See you all in June.

    Declaring £137.28 for May! Very pleased with that, as I was doing quite a bit of living out of the freezer. June will be a higher month again, as I'm topping up the freezer with a big Ocado shop. I think I alternate between higher and lower spend months, but as long as it works out over the year, that's fine with me.
