February 2019 Grocery Challenge

[Deleted User]

Just done a double check of this month total spends. I have £120.22 left to spent but I have a lot of food in the freezer so will aim to use that up first so spend this week should be minimal.

£8.20 spent in Home Bargains, Wilkos and £land, dog treats, wild bird food, spearmint, bunjee cords, wet wipes for getting salt scattered by over enthusiastic caretaker off dogs feet.

Could I please change my budget for this month. A 23p overspend in Jan so it is coming off Febs budget making it £145.37 for me for the month. Sorry to be a pain.

Very full cupboards, fridge and a freezer to start the month with so should hopefully be a reasonable spend kind of month. £7.59 spent so far.

£55.94 spent between yesterday in Mr L’s and today in in WIlkoos
Have decided that although I’m keeping health/hygiene products separate, cleaning (loo roll, washing up liquid, disinfectant etc) will still go in to the groceries budget.;)
I mainly want to keep health separate so I can keep a track on how much per month/year my vitamins etc are costing me.

Few spends today:
40.16 at ald1 for main shop
1.07 on beans at £stretcher

They had some naturli vegan mince packs at heron, 400g for 49p - I bought 4. I'm no vegan but at that price, I'll give it a go!

First weekly instalment of stock is in! Luckily it's only a 4 weekend month as we needed topping up on squash, coffee and several tins and packets to keep the pantry prepped.

So, bags of dog food and grocery shop all put away. We're all home today too, including DH, so I got a treat for breakfast and we're having black pudding, eggs and some hm hash browns. It's a late breakfast as everyone's had time to relax a bit whilst the shopping was sorted so it'll be a most definite brunch by the time we all reach the table.

£87.02 spent.

Right, time to get the coffee pot on. :coffee: DS has crept out of bed and is under a blanket watching the bird feeders and some stunning pheasants feeding in the garden and I'm about to join him. DD is playing upstairs and DH is reading in bed...until he smells the breakfast! :rotfl:

Happy weekend all!

There’s a coffee icon!! I used to work with a database where, instead of getting an annoying circle when it was busy, you got a cup and saucer. The developer wanted - I don’t know if he succeeded - to put the words “time for coffee” circling around it.

I hope your breakfast was lovely.

We’ll be going shopping later, so I’ll update my numbers then.

£14.54 in Tesco this morning. First shop of the month. Just stuff for lunches, and evening meals for this week. It's only me to feed, so quite a cheap shop.

£1.60 spent today on cheesy bread rolls for lunch. We're all feeling a bit under the weather so actual cooking isn't happening today. Hopefully normal service can resume tomorrow.
