    Last one in again! :D

    So after looking really good for finishing May under budget, unfortunately I ended up over it!

    - Graze Box £3.89

    - Fruit & Veg Boxes £37, suddenly realised I had forgotten to pay the previous week so had to pay for two weeks together and slightly more asI had lots of fruit for my daughter's birthday!

    - £51.77 at Pet Shop - unexpected shop to buy a bigger hamster cage they had begun to fight and we thought a bigger cage may stop that, seems to have done the trick for the moment! :)

    - £5.17 at Vets to by a tick remover! Found one behind my daughters ear, first time we have had one but at least we have one in the house from now on!

    - £5.29 Small top up shop from other half for beers!

    - £4.80 small top up shop for bread and turkey slices over half term!

    - £3 refund from Tesco for a substituted item I didn't want on my click and collect

    - £70.99 click and collect Tesco shop - this is what blew the budget as I was going to do this on 1st June but ended up better with my weekly plans to collect it on 31st May!

    - £12 top up Tesco shop - other half got something, can't remember what! :/

    So come in at £674.22 / £600 for the month, still under budget for the year and also hopefully means should be able to keep on target for June easier :)
