February 2020 Grocery Challenge

Toonie

Total so far this month is £25.60. Done a couple of small shops including in Lidl (£12) and tesco express (£10). Haven't done a main shop yet, that may be done the end of this week though, we'll see what we're running out of. Prefer to walk to get most groceries, only really use the car if it's heavy items or a lot of things.

Tonight we're having cottage pie, veggies and gravy. Tomorrow my plan is home fried chicken, so will need to get a cabbage as we always make coleslaw to go with it (I can't eat onion, so shop bought is a no-go).

Oh dear - first post on the new forum and i'm not sure where anything is - i can't seem to see any options for colours and font size? Oh and less of these  too. Ah well.

£20.22 today in Asda, needed fruit and lunch stuff for work. also picked up two slim fast x 6 bottles for £2 each that I’ve been wanting to try out.  8 more days of this budget. Looking forward to March.  Feel an M nd S shop coming on, haven’t been once this year.  But Marchs budget is going to depend on how much my car repairs end up being next month

NSD here, will be shopping tomorrow though.

made chilli and nachos tonight, was very tasty and closer to cooking real food than recently, fingers crossed our roof will be sealed in tomorrow, the rest will be sealed by next weekend 👍
