    Most of my spending seems to revolve around food...had unexpected guests for t and as Mt t is not arriving until later I had to pop out to get something ....£7.50 later argh!! apart from this I didn't spend anything myself
    Oh well what we were going to have for t will save but I do think I need to get a bit more organised....I'm going to try to do a bit of batched cooking next week, has anyone got a nice lasagne recipe please??

    My previous post contains my 3 faves, and I'l never admit to being a mean Scot, I'm a frugal Scot training fulltime to qualify, with honours, as an eccentric:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: And guess what? Eccentricities are FREE!! :T

    Hi liuhut, I make my lasagne the same as this recipe but without the celery (& the red wine while I'm on the challenge!)

    thanks for your wingman comment nyk! :cool: I didn't understand the cyberdosh bit though :o so had to google it, is it your creation? Am going to have a proper look around the site when I get chance :)

    :hello: shelovestobuystuff & welcome :)

    hope you've all had a good (& cheap!) day, 2 no spend days in a row for me :)

    I'm nearly out of shampoo so I've just added a sample bottle I got as a freeby into the main bottle and I'm going to add in the samples bit by bit until I'm completely out!! I guess I will make it to the end of the month by doing this.
