PIPNEY, where do you get your trays of tinned toms from? I used to get them from Morrison's, but they've stopped doing them now"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

£108 already - so over. But had a friend over for the weekend so had lots of slightly nicer things than I would have myself, and I massively underspent in January and February so I'm fine with that.Start mortgage date: August 2022; Start mortgage amount: £240,999; Original mortgage free date: August 2056

Morning all,slightly chaotic recording of spends as I've got a friend staying for the week,and DD needed feeding(plus her 2 dogs!) Friend is on a FODMAP diet,very restricting but we manage by eating out.....
£23.80 left out of my £ 125 budget, tight squeeze but possibly doable.

Hi folks, apologies for not posting more regularly this month. I am not loving this new forum set up and have considered stopping using it. However I would miss the support and accountability that I get on here so I will have to learn to get on with the new look forum. I have £15 left this month to last us until the 25th. Will do better updating regularly next month.9

The company I work for have enforced working from home for all office staff for the next month. I've just done my online shop for this week and it's £96 ! I'm not bulk buying or hoarding so I'm not entirely sure how this has got this big
I'm going to go through it again before Weds when it's due and see if it's all needed. Having said that, just wfh will increase my weekly shop as I usually have breakfast and snacks provided by work.

One more little shop today (seems to be creeping up on me lol) - £2.82. Bought a couple of bags of frozen veg and a jar of beetroots to try making into veggie burgers. Think it might add the desired red colour + a bit more in the way of flavour...Grocery Challenge
