No money spent today, have plenty in the cupboards etc after shopping yesterday, but I was very tempted to go into a corner shop whilst out walking but resisted, a first for me!!!!

Haha, I had forgotten The Cut. My Dad always rated it. I did not like the walk through arches too much to be honest, probably because of believing I was being followed on my way home via Waterloo Station after a night out with colleagues. 

Still no shopping here. I think we might need a couple of bits but will ask DH as he is better at sticking to a list than me!

After defrosting the freezer I needed to restock it, so spent a scary £102.36, meal planning to do and baking this weekend.

Good morning everyone 

I’m miles behind with everyone’s postings, so hope I haven’t missed much.  @elsiepac sorry to hear that you have been struggling.  Big hugs.

As predicted, we had money to roll over from August.  Just another £6.90, so my budget for September is now  £146.90.  No spends yet but I will probably go to L!dl this afternoon.

No more spends yet. Went to the allotment and picked loads of veg for next week, so shouldn't need to buy anymore and still keeping to the meal plan. I haven't any room in the freezer for bulk cooking so eating the same thing for a few days on the trot, well usually 2/3. All good here.

OK here goes. Been busy Selling, packing, eating out of the freezer and cupboards. Had to buy a few bits.
Lids £1.80
Asda, £48.37. Bread, rolls. Cakes. Crisps. Milk s.skimmed and lactose free.  Cereal. Buts n bobs for our people lunch boxes, breakfast and evening meal.
Asda. £15.93
Lids £7.70. Fruit n veg.
Fish n chips (treats night Friday) £20.80 = £94.60  that's 11 days so far. So I have 2 days to cook for our people. 
Tomorrow is cereal for breakfast, sandwich/soup for lunch and slice of cake.  Cottage Pie, veg and Apple Crumble. For our evening meal. All out of the freezer.and cupboards.
Monday is cereal for breakfast. Lunchbox for my lady to take to the day centre and for our mansoup and yoghurt or tin peaches and cream. Burger egg and chips for the evening meal ( they chose this meal) they both love chips!!  Rice pudding for afters. 
Tuesday morning will be cereal for them and lunchbox made for  our lady. Our man is away support and they provide his lunch. All out of the cupboards fridge and freezer. Then they move in with their new carers. So for the next 2 weeks it will be him  and me. We will eat what's in the fridge freezer and cupboards apart from we will need to buy  milk, bread or maybe salad.   I think we will keep within the £200 mark this month. Any freezer food we will  hand out to neighbours or give to afield of ours who feeds the less fortunate people who are  homeless or on benefits and struggling.   
Then who knows  what we will be eating or where whilst travelling around in our motor home looking for  our dream narrowboat.  
Phew long post  sorry!!!
Will pop  back  when I can. Going to be busy  for a couple of days/weeks. 
Take care and keep safe everyone X
