£250 please @elsiepac, hoping for much much less though as massively overspent in July and still one-third of the month left.

@elsiepac thanks for all your hard work                         £60.00  for me please 1st -31 August

My freezer is stuffed full and I have two full cuboards of tinned stuff ,so it will mainly be fruit and veg and maybe a few odds and ends if I run short of anything. There is only me to feed, and Sundays I go to DDs for dinner every week.

Thanks for the new thread, @elsiepac.  Count me in, please with a

Budget £140.

That’s for two adults for all supermarket shopping for August.  We’re away for the first week - going to Birmingham for the Commonwealth Games - but I reckon we’ll spend it all.

Thank you elsiepac for doing this thread. As I keep saying it really does help keep us accountable, even if some of us blow the budget it would be worse if we weren't on here I'm sure.

Our August budget is going to be £250 again.

The month goes 1st to the 31st.

This is for two adults, my OH and I, and a chinchilla. Includes all food and drink (except alcohol), cleaning products, toiletries etc and all chinchilla items (food, hay, sand, treats etc.).
Really hoping to come in budget however I know tracking the spends is better than doing an impression of an ostrich and not doing so.

£0/£250.

£250 left.

Please could I join again for August? 
Last month was my first month and £150 was a guesstimate which I think was a bit too tight for us. Plus littlest one will start weaning this month so there will definitely be additional food items on the shopping list!

Please put me down for £200 for two adults, a 3yo and a weaning baby
