I do have a fully stocked freezer so will only need to go and buy a few fresh items
The fresh items I will need are:
Milk (Will buy from Asda as they still have the 2 x 4pints for £3 offer on) 2 will last me a week if I water it down
Vegetables (Will shop at Aldi for these as they sell Fruit n Veg for 39p per pack)
Fruit (Aldi as above)
Bread...I only buy the fresh baked in store loaves from Tesco.. These cost £1.20 per loaf but last me 3-4 days plus I have a few loaves in the freezer for emergencies
Butter..Will switch to Tesco value unsalted butter @ £1.10 per block


Won't have any diesel either but that is not a big problem as Jack is off school so we will spend the week making Christmas decoration and de-cluttering the upstairs & if I do have to go anywhere we will just walk....We don't do enough walking anyway so it will do us good.

I have no choice but to stick to the above.. Quiet looking forward to it actually.
Depending how it goes I might do a no spend week per month to get the debts down even quicker!

Will update blog with pics/prices of today's dinner later.... x
