Lunch Log Challenge 2008
Comments

I spent £80 in total on food in January, as opposed to the average of £160 I spent each month last year. Had money left at the end of the month, so doing your own lunches does make a big difference.0

Right, here goes...! Made a menu plan for this week and everything and so far I've managed to not make porridge as planned for this morning and had a cereal bar once I was at work instead!!
Today's lunch i peppered ham rolls with a cup a soup (Ainsley's tomato one I think) so no spend!
By the way, can I have a number please?
