Anyone else want to scream 😱 about prices

[Cupcakeicecream]

Anyone else feel like screaming 😱. The smart meter is now the enemy. I'm constantly topping up the meter. Yes it's prepayment they won't change it I've tried and tried. The budget just keeps getting tighter. It's hard to find cheap food no offers things constantly out of stock. You need a bank loan for just to buy toliet roll 🙄 I don't have the heating on constantly I try to just heat one room with a heater. Radiators are barely on an hour here and there to keep away damp. Dryer needs to be used in in emergency since the house is colder so clothes aren't drying properly. I use an airer and it's constantly raining and windy to use the washing line. Food budget is through the roof food is smaller and more expensive and always out of stock honestly what a joke.

Not to be a pedant but as a big baker, there’s quite a variety in quality between extract and essence plus most of these are all different sizes.

I find the Stockwell along with the Hearty Food and Ms Molly range really good. Some favourites are the Stockwell salad cream and baked beans, Hearty Food penne and Ms Molly chocolate for baking.

I’ve tried a fair amount of the range now and there’s nothing I wouldn’t bother with again.

Those are all extract rather than essence, and the cheapest one is also the cheapest per 100ml.
