    Number 2 for me today. I did spend in the supermarket but only essential budgeted food and partly paid by a remainder on a gift card, also I found £1 in a trolley. Saved £2.40 with nectar card, got 7p of nectar points and parted with birthday cash to pay the remainder. Living the dream 🤣

    made a lovely chicken casserole if I say so myself!
