I’ve just realised that I’m not in your chart. (I was on the December chart but haven’t got carried forward.)
My budget is £400 per month with an annual budget built at £5200 to fill freezers/store cupboard.
Hopefully I can be put on but if not, I’ll just keep my own tally.2 -

Thank you for our shiny new thread, elsiepac! Please could you put me down for £420 again? That's decidedly unambitious, but we have my 94 y.o. mother staying for 2 weeks from 20th and my SiL, who normally looks after her, has put her on a strict lactose & gluten free diet. Which will pose us some challenges, especially on the budgeting front... we'll see how we go!Angie - GC Jul 25: £225.85/£500 : 2025 Fashion on the Ration Challenge: 26/68: (Money's just a substitute for time & talent...)2
