Must try harder!

Another huge Bagpuss fan here. I can't do any ironing as the dog goes loopy at the iron 😂. Having said that, my washing spends so long in a pile waiting to be put away, it's pressed by the time we go to wear anything. 🤦‍♀️

Updated my signature, I've now paid off just a smidge over £10k.  We were doing well in lockdown as what we weren't paying out in travel was going to payments but that's had to be reduced now as between us we're back full time.

I've been trying to remember to switch off things at the plug to try and save a little electricity. Problem is I keep forgetting so my phone didn't charge and I wondered why my coffee machine wasn't working 😖

Noticed the shopping is definitely more expensive. I usually do MrT's deliveries as my back is usually killing me with all the bending visiting the physical shop but I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet.  I can't trust MrM to do the shopping, God knows what I'd end up with!  

Two days off this week. Looking forward to it although not got anything planned.

We are physically shopping now NM

 Mr M_F does the heavy lifting as I have back probs too. It seems to take forever though. Thurs is Iceland. Friday little Tesco. Sat Lidl, Petrol and anywhere else. Sunday Wilko's

Thurs and Fri on way home from work. Sat we fit everything into one trip. Sunday is on way back from park with dog. It is saving money just not time 😮‍💨
Enjoy days off 🙂
Edit. Nearly forgot. Ten grand is mega well done 🌟

We are having a mix @Naomim. Mostly still MrT delivery with an odd L*dl visit thrown in. It’s all getting dearer and MrT are having a lot of subs and short dates at the moment 😖 Your overall payments are amazing, well done! 

@moving_forward  that must take up a lot of time 😖

It bloomin does WW as I have to spend time doing the lists as well. I have developed a four week meal plan to make it easier and use the Google notes app as a list base with the tick boxes.
Every week I have to force myself not to just order from my preferred Waitrose 😭

I’d be in m&s all the time if we had one 🤣

@Naomim - that's a fab debt repayment, well done 
i shop in real shops  - usually Mr T and also the local c00p.  I get vouchers at the C and have been using them if they are what i buy anyway - regularly get 50p off - every little helps

I just don't have the time and energy for all that shopping MF. It's all I can do to try and keep on top of the house aswell as doing the shopping etc. We have al Aldi up the road and a fairly new Lidl so I should get there really.  Problem is the carparks are usually so very small and lots of queueing.

The house is not without suffering believe me! Already out from 6.45 till 5.00 ISH as only one car. It's a total nightmare. I may have to go back to the online shopping as we have little time as it is.

With MrT's I have the delivery saver for midweek deliveries. £3.49 a month. I think it's rather worth it if I shop to a list and meal planner.
