Another crappy dinner, but coffee and ice cream out

Or a better dinner 🤷🏻‍♀️

Like many of us, we’ve been finding the bills and rising cost of food etc hard. Feel like I’m scrimping back on meals and haven’t had many nice ones recently…just lots of very simple pasta and sauce, jacket potatoes..it’s fine but not great.
My Dd, 4 is off tomorrow so I thought we’d have a morning just us at the beach. I only have a bit of change left, do I go for a coffee for me and ice cream for her and have basic eggs & chips tonight or do I get a nicer dinner for tonight as it’s been a letdown all week?

Cannot believe I’m even fretting over a coffee and ice cream, it’s depressing.

Hello everyone,
We've had a number of reports from people concerned about this thread so, as we usually do in these circumstances, we're putting our heads round the door with some important reminders.
Right now we can't see any evidence to indicate that the OP isn't above board – if we did, we'd remove the thread straight away. But the truth is that, sadly, we at MNHQ can't know with 100% certainty that any poster is genuine, no matter who they are or how long they have been here. As frustrating as it is, we're not able to vouch for anyone here.
So we always ask users to remember that not everyone on the internet is who they say they are – and remind folk not to give more to another poster, either financially (in cash or gifts) or emotionally (in time or care and support) than they'd be prepared to lose if things went wrong.
Though, we strongly advise against parting with any cash or giving away your personal details, and if you receive a PM which makes you uneasy - report it to us and we’ll take a look.
We've compiled some useful links posted by Mumsnetters into a financial issues webguide, so that people experiencing difficulties can find all the relevant information in one place
Sorry to hijack your thread briefly there, OP – we really hope you get it all sorted soon.
