Mon - £0 HM leftover beef stroganoff; fruit
Tue: £10 pizza, coke & coffee (wasn't even that nice and I've blown my low carb diet for today!)
Oh well, tomorrow is another day...0 -
Found my downfalls used to take little one, not so little,( eats like a horse yikes!), to m&s for a drink and a cake. Then it was my treat when he was at school. Now try not to go into town find other things to do, and eat at home. Also used to buy kids sweets/cakes for coming out of school. Now take dried fruit, breadsticks in sandwhich bags. Have to cut back on food shopping and be resourcful re left overs. Its making me less fussy.Grocery challenge june £300/ £211-50.

Belated Happy Birthday Fletch! Have a diet irn bru cheers! :beer:
I haven't got anything with me today for lunch but i am going to go to Somerfield to get some essentials for home, and will sneak in a tin of soup or something grocery-like, so i can say it came out of the grocery budget not a lunch spend.... cheating, moi? :rolleyes:
If, and i say if, i come back with a ready made sandwich then i will fess up and include it as a spendle! :eek: Do not want to do this as aiming for a NSW!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Hi all, well I fell off the wagon yesterday and haven't managed to catch up with it yet! Unfortunately didn't make up any lunch today, so will need to go buy something.. won't spend any more than £3 though.0

Ahem, would a chicken caesar sandwich, plain crisps and some grapes constitute a major wagon falling off?? £4.20
there appeared to be nothing at all to make up a nice work lunch in the whole of the little somerfields! honest! Well, okay, maybe i didn't look very hard... but they put the samdwiches by the door and ..... well y'know..... SORRY!!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0
