Just added everything up, after yesterdays big shop delivered I’m declaring at £385.66/400 x4

We finished last week with a few spends: £2.50 and £18.52 in L!dl, plus £16 in Sainsbugs. Also, DH spent £2.40 on YS items in MrT’s when he went to spend our expiring Clubcard vouchers.
MOST IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE: Martin’s trick of buying something cheap on a Clubcard voucher, forcing it to roll over the balance, didn’t work! The cashier insisted that he spend all a voucher or nothing.I’m declaring at £179.70/£202.30
leaving £22.60 to roll over to September.

To say that my DH was less than impressed, would be an understatement @2childmum2 . Thanks for confirming re the self-service tills.
