To feel I’ve let you all down?

I had a thread about me sounding £30 a month on all good /drink a week or so ago.

Today - 11th is officially the last day of the ‘month’ and I’m ashamed to say the total I’ve spent on food this month is closer to £100!

I feel like I’ve let you all down, but most of all I’ve let myself down!!

However, thanks everyone but on the thread I had some excellent shopping recipe ideas 🙌

So thank you !

I think to be frugal you have to realistic. You also need a working knowledge of nutrition. No point in saving money then ending up ill.
Look at a site called six figures under, lots of money saving and meal ideas on there.

It's not really a surprise, it was totally unrealistic unless you were going to live on porridge!
