June 2026 Grocery Challenge

I have totted up my June spends and rounded up they come to £121.

This includes two meal deals that I couldn't really avoid as I was travelling and a packed lunch or flask was too much to worry about.

This brings the total for the year so far to £633, for a single pensioner. I did have a week away in April where the food budget was covered by the travel fund, so probably not an accurate reflection of what the next six months will hold, especially with food costs rising every week. Onward and upward folks!

I'm still here, but also getting in a muddle with things.

I've just recently gave DD2 a tenner to cover bits and pieces she had been getting from the shop for me. She has moved out now, so the reigns are fully tightened, as no more contributions to the household.

There is another small spend somewhere for a few pounds, but I can't remember where or what on! I'm going to be tracking everything for July, alot more closely.

I've also spent £10 on subscribe and save (Marriages flour as it's meant to be better), but this is from the bulk fund. This is arriving tomorrow, but technically I won't be opening it yet. So, is coming out of July spends.
