    Had to do an Aldi dash last night, alcohol supplies, separate budget, picked up denti stix for wammal, another budget, did get a decent sized celeriac 75p.
    Do I need it or just want it.

    Well back from a £44.88 spend at Aldi, mainly on junk, having a house full of builders does the biscuit budget some damage:D

    Will add £45 to spends
    Note to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!

  • I feel your pain with the fridge/freezer, elsiepac - I was living with similar in a previous rental and it completely wrecked my ability to plan.

    And re the stress/random crying - ask for help if you need it! From experience, soldiering on often doesn't go well.
