My budget for a month is £260 for everything and in my household there is myself and 3 DDs aged 12, 5 and 3.
I have just done a weekly shop with Tesco for collection (which is free) and it came to just over £70! That includes evening meals until Friday, lunch for DD3 all week (the other 2 get free school meals) and fruit for snacks.
I want to make healthy meals that include vegetables that can be hidden as DD2 and DD3 won't eat any if they can see it!
I buy all my cleaning products from the 99p store where possible and we use Boots basic bubble bath and shower gel
I have tried buying a chicken and using the left overs for another meal but it never works out that way
Are there any other tips?
Thank you
