  • 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.
  • 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?

  • No spend for me today. Made a rotton but very healthy soup and forced myself to eat it!

    Monday: £0

  • Nice to see February might bring renewed focus for some of us. I'm up and raring to go so.................

    Monday 4/2 - £3.50 - Sandwiches & ham (surprise, surprise) and 12 cans diet coke and multi pack crisps. This £3.50 should stretch for over two weeks (provided nobody gets sticky fingers here at work ;) )

    Am posting from work but in my defence the system is down. Only the interweb working so what's a girl to do...............

  • Oh, NO! Am I the only one to log today? Has everyone gone to the Posh Nosh department and spent tenners and tenners? :p
