Second purse purchases yesterday in T’s:

4 x Colgate pump toothpaste at £1.90 each. Buy back at £2 each. 

Pack of 4 kitchen roll for £4.25. Buy back at £1.50 each. 

2 boxes of 210 Yorkshire teabags at £5.79. Buy back at £6 each. Not the cheapest but I’m not able to get to B&M anytime soon (or wanting too!). Not sure if the 240 boxes are still available? 

Purse now has just over £40 left. Stock totals just over £80.

Some more SP purchases. A couple of L’Oréal Men Expert deodorants on offer - DH picked these up when shopping the other day so they’ve been put into stock. I also ordered a box of 6 Brita filters today - this always catches me out as a big ticket purchase, so are now a designated SP item. 

Purse has just over £8 left now.

This month saw me buying laundry tabs, loo roll and Yorkshire Teabags in bulk. I also got a 3for2 Head & Shoulders offer from B00ts for £10 and some Men's deodorant for DH and DS2 in bulk, again from B00ts.

If there are any meat offers for Easter, I may well use some of the purse balance for this. I saw a YS leg of lamb in Tesco today for £30.06! Just crazy.

Hi all, totals for this past month as follows:

February purse balance £99.91
Items bought for stock £14.50
Amount leftover £85.41

Stock items used during the month £40.90
New March purse balance £126.31 - I have decided not to put the monthly £30 in this month as have a good balance already
Stock balance £138.10

This month I only bought 4 x 4 pack of tuna and some fem wash on offer at 2 for £4.50. The latter was to take advantage of the Boots scan to recycle scheme and help me to spend over £10 for the 500 points deal.

I'm still planning/hoping to get some meat on offer due to Easter deals. The legs of lamb in Sains yesterday were still nearly £18 which I just can't get my head around tbh! Might have to settle for pork, but will see.
