| We were doing about £160 main monthly shop and then about £90 quid per week top up (mainly at the coop round the corner)...How much do you throw away doing that!? I find my shopping bills are bigger if the hubby is with me... I've cut the bills down big time since Xmas...All fresh veg from the local market for the week about £5,I've also started shopping at the local butchers for cheaper cuts of meat rather than pre-packed supermarket at double the price, a bit at tesco or Asda accumilating to about £40 then milk bread and eggs from Coop within the week about £20. I've also drastically reduced my alcohol consumption which has reduced the bill no end!  Morrisons was a rip...you had spent £50 quid before you had actually got to the food...Tesco can be a rip if you are dragging two children that are obsessed with anything they see on the TV...hence I've started shopping at about 9pm. I hate shopping. I cant stand those people that stand there comparing prices and looking at ingredients. I have recently become one of those that ... "If it's not on the list we dont get it". I know my local TESCO like the back of my hand and write the list according to where I am going first...and I DONT deviate from the route...That leads to crap buying! And Glynn...Aldi is not that cheap...Not anymore...They are stocking more and more branded products.  [Edited on 16-4-2005 by kwikbitch]  |
