No grocery shopping as yet this week, although I did get a delivery last Friday. I had a voucher for £5 off a £40 spend, which after the delivery charge (£4.50), only saved me 50p, but at least it saved me carrying all this lot…..
Curry Paste £1.00 x 6
Noodles £1.00 x 2
Shampoo, Nachos and Salsa all on 3 for 2
Loo Rolls £1.99 x 3
Mandarins 40p x 4
My grocery spend for November is now £172.97 despite all this stockpiling….hopefully with a little careful planning I can stay within my £200 budget.
*I used a few more advantage points today to pick up 6 more ‘free’ shower gels – we should have enough to last us all of 2013 now

Hi Laura
I have spent my day putting my accounts back on Quicken. I tried doing them manually but was terrified of missing something, so I have gone back to downloading transactions from the bank and categorizing them in Quicken. Much easier. And transparent! That is how I know I overspent by $160(NZ) last fortnight!!! That was just on food as I split my supermarket spend into food, cleaning & supplies and personal care. Couldn’t believe it!!! This fortnight I’m watching exactly how much I spend 
Your site is inspiring me already 
Hi Clare. Ouch! I track all our spending (good or bad!) – it really helps me to stick to budget. Good luck
Wow, that same curry paste costs $5.69 here! And of course I consider it a “must buy”!
Wow that’s expensive!
I bought groceries in Hawaii last week, & the prices nearly blew my socks off. The price of food overall was CRAZY expensive. I loved, loved, loved it there, but I’m not sad to be back & paying mainland prices again.
