Haven't been able to tot up Clod's shop as yet. T'internet is being a bit ridiculous and dropping every few mins. Supermarket homeshopping site doesn't like it. I get a few products in then the page goes to 'cannot show website' blah blah.
Anyways:
Here's my latest shop. It's just a basic provisions top-up shop. I already had meat, fish and veg in the freezer, plus rice, pasta and beans etc in the cupboard.

The chocolate, biscuits and dessert sachets are my attempt to stave off chocolate bars and sweeties from the cornershop (expensive!). I'm trying to ration how much I eat of them each day - I've been a bit over the top just lately with my sugar addiction and it is costly as hell and terrible for my skin and overall health. So, couple of biscuits and a few squares of chocolate is what I'm allowing myself.
The dessert sachets will probably live in the cupboard for months and will no doubt come into their own one stoned nigth when the munchies hit - at which point a 17p dessert will be better than going and spending a couple of quid on munchies from the shop!
