Doubly motivated to save money and NOT step food inside a supermarket, with all that last minute stressy shopping and crammed car parks. BUT think we might need a fruit and dairy top-up before Wednesday..... arghhhhh :rotfl:
Yes dairy can be tricky for Christmas feasts ... I will probably need some last-minute green salad leaves. Going to try to avoid Tesco though!0 -

15/20 NSDs for me, thanks to being well-behaved today. It helped that the supermarket car parks looked crammed and uninviting! I suspect a visit to Aldi might be in order tomorrow. Fingers crossed for minimum supermarket queues and customer rage-factor.
