    I'm feeling quite pleased with my self - I started the week with ten pounds in my purse and it's still there! So that's 4 nsd's in a row! I will need to go to break the run today though as we need milk and my dog needs some antihistamines - still it's an improvement on my normal and sometimes wasteful ways. Shopping wise I spent 48.00 in Iceland last Sunday and did a top up of £15.00 leaving me £3 for milk and meds ����. Thank crunchy it's Friday!

    £10.45 vegbox. Just a few spinach leaves wasted this week as the bag managed to get shoved to the back of the fridge so the leaves froze and went mushy.

    Well so good, so far! Haven't spent anything so far this month, hoping to hold out until Monday and do a yellow sticker rampage! So that will be 12 no spend days by then if all goes to plan. Xx

    Haven't had a chance to update for a few days, but have just been totalling up food spends to date. I'm now up to £307.73 :eek:! Can't believe how much we've spent in just 9 days! That said, I've meal planned for rest of the month and have restocked our almost empty freezer and food cupboards thanks to a mahoosive internet shop from Mr T at £161.99, which should feed us for the rest of the month barring fresh fruit and veg, the odd lunchbox addition, and milk.

    I'm still on one measly NSD, but hope that after today (gift wrap and a birthday meal for a work colleague) I'll finally get a few more under my belt.

    Just off to add £75 to my total for a market shop this morning, which is all the basic stuff bought for the week. That said, I'm typing this at my mother's; she's unwell so I may need to be here for most of the weekend. And while the cat's away, the "mice" will run riot in the kitchen & my carefully-laid plans may well collapse - again!

    Indulgently bought cake tonight whilst DD was filling up her car. So I've spent £2.31. I'm still pleased that I'm under £100 for the month so far. I allowed £200 for the month including toiletries, cleaning products and pet food. My month started 26th August. :)
