MRSMc- My total for the May GC was £250.

Mrs M, I would like to declare £239.83 for May please. I've just done my monthly shop for June and have spent £119.40 out of my shiny new budget of £200, but I've only got to get milk and f&v - so should be okay.

Good luck everyone for June.

MrsM, I've been so excited about the new June budget that I forgot to tell you I came in at £174.15 for May, sorry about that. Thanks for keeping me on your list anyway.

Hi Nessa,

Do you know the June grocery challenge is up and running (actually, running away now - I think there's about 45 pages) Here's the link just in case you didn't know.

Hi all,
I'm a newbie and would really like to join in this challenge.
Allow me to introduce myself...
My name is Lynsey and I am 20 years old. I live in Durham with my boyfriend (Andrew) and his parents and brother. I am following the tesco diets light choices plan as I am wanting to lose weight. Therefore, I buy in all of my food for my diet. I plan for a budget of around £50 a month which is still quite expensive to me! As me and Andrew are trying to save up for a house deposit, we want to be moved out by this time next year! And to get there, we need ALOT of cash behind us!
I usually shop weekly for my food, and so I will update my sig every Monday with how much I have spent.
