Thank you Karmacat. Still waiting to send the payment but I expect it will go on Monday now.
Finally finished prepping for the craft fair tomorrow, everything is priced up and packed ready for the off.
7th NSD today. Meal plan is completed for the week ahead and the food shopping is all done, although I had to do a bit of a detour as our Tesco was flooded, so I did a lot at Lidl instead, then onto Sainsburys for a couple of bits I couldn't get at Lidl.

Home Bargains -
Food £4.81
Total Food Spend week 3: £ 76.19
Total Food Spend for November so far: £262.06
Total Remaining this month: £57.94
It is going to be really tight this month, and I am intending on taking advantage of vouchers etc to buy a lot of next months meat ahead of time (if so, I will borrow from next months food budget to do this, and reduce December's budget accordingly).

What an exciting plan will really look forward to your updates. How do you get on with etsy I have sold through ebay in the past (craft) but it's very slow, is it worth opening an etsy shop and are the fees high. Have a lovely weekend x
