    It was me that posted about the Grocery Challenge Ashbart. Is it easy to keep up with? In what way? I just keep my total in my signature and add to it everytime i buy stuff. Really easy to keep track if you just keep your receipts.

    Well, do you have to post your progress on their thread or just in your signature? What if I'm not sure what to set my budget at and what happens if I go WAY over budget - which I'm likely to do as I know I spend lots..... I know these all seem like ridiculous questions. I guess I'm almost afraid to do it as I will be horrified at how much I spend. There you go, I said it.

    Aaahh.. but we haven't introduced ourselves.. how rude..


    Susieq.. I am pigpen (cos I live in one!) I have 2 children (honest.. anyone who would have more than 2 is insane!!).. am perfectly sensible and nice. I give treats of dog biscuits to those who work hard during the day and get their lists done.. and am quite prone to chasing those who don't with my feather duster and fluffy mules!!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: the only honest bit here is the bit about dog biscuits:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Just put in an Asda order for tomorrow evening between 3-5pm was the only time they had to put a note on saying "out 3.05 to 3.30 collecting child from school" :rolleyes: Spent £61 after discounts BUT that should do us the entire month with what else is in the house, and includes lots of pure orange, cereal and tinned fruit in juice, fish. All I need to go and get in person is my bodyspray which they never seem to have on-line :confused: Will leave that until Friday morning straight from school by which time I should see if I've forgotten anything ;):rotfl:

    Off to make tea and put washing in TD - DD came home with her CLEAN ON TODAY pants covered in PVA glue :rolleyes: blooming typical and my washing line is full with bedding!!! Will finish the final 2 bundles of DD's clothing for ebay after she's gone to bed, then I can upload tomorrow night. ;)
