Well done everyone finishing under budget. I can but dream. Xx0 -
Spent another £21.37 today in Ald!, managed to get some meat half price which has been put in the freezer for July, so theorectically although I'm over for June by almost £30 there should be some savings made during July.
I think I'm going to track healthy food and treat/snacks next month to see what the spilt is.Grocery Challenge 2024

Still a busy month for me, am actually technically off work due to an arm injury, but still having to finish work I've already accepted (oh, the joys of being self-employed)... Very nearly went over my £110 budget in the first week, so I guess it's no surprise that I'm now well and truly over - £169.48 spent on food so far this month. Hopefully that will be it now, as there are only a few days left!0
