So I might have been slightly spendy tonight 🤭 I’ve been hanging my nose over a Ninja Foodi for some time now and Amazon had the one I had my eye on reduced by £50. Plus a discussion on a friend’s FB post extolling their virtues and the upshot is it’s arriving on Saturday. I’m hoping it will solve, in the short term, the rubbish oven problem as it even bakes cakes. I think it will benefit Mr SA and DD more than me but it should save money on electricity as I’ll hardly ever use the oven. I do like my kitchen gadgets, have quite a few 😂 Will need to do a bit of jiggery pokery with the pots to cover it but plenty left in the Christmas one due to not being able to go anywhere.

Think of it as your Christmas present to you then you can justify the Christmas pot 🎄 Enjoy. I’ve got to admit we were looking at them but I’ve recently bought a new actifry. I too love gadgets and have been shuffling them around my new cupboards today as I don’t necessarily want them all out in the worktops 👍January spends - £587.586

We’ve got a Breville Halo which has been great but it’s getting a bit past it best, quite a few years old now. Mr SA and DD will be able to enjoy a whole chicken again, can’t cook anything in my oven that takes longer than 20 minutes as it overheats and trips the electric. Certainly can’t bake cakes, they just burn. I’ve got a dedicated gadget cupboard but might be able to get rid of a few as the Ninja is 9 in 1. Mr SA is happy as it was one of the things on his pester list 🤣I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

Got a Ninja Foodie 3 months ago and love it. Even the OH can use it without burning something. is big and on top of the work top but we use it a lot. Somethings I still prefer to use my oven for . There are fb pages you can join, giving recipes and advise.xx:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.008

I’ve joined a FB page courtesy of the friend who’s got one. The Halo takes up a fair bit of space but that will go. Fortunately I’ve got a big kitchen so plenty of space.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8
