Hubby has been taking stuff for his sarnies for work from the cupboards rather than me buying fresh cooked meats etc, hes been having lurking jars of assorted meat pastes, tinned ham, tuna, egg mayo and cheese. We must have saved a fair bit by doing this. His workmate is also going on holiday soon too and has also decided not to buy food from the machines/canteen or get a takeaway on nightshift and was saying hes also saved quite a few £ by doing this. <br />I once did an Ocado online shop as there was a £20 off your first shop offer. I only got 5 carrier bags full for about £75 but the produce was excellent and there was stuff i cant buy at other supermarkets. We havent done one since but of ever i had spare money i would consider it. There isnt a Waitrose near me except when we take Daniel for his lymphoedema appointments to Otley but its a good 40 minute drive away unfortunately.<br />Looking forward to any more money saving ideas you have to keep the spending low, at this rate we may even be able to afford a holiday next year :-)<br />take care jane xxxxjanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429407762971880994.post-68691763080180137492016-07-11T14:47:09.684+01:002016-07-11T14:47:09.684+01:00I have found the flash sales an excellent source o...I have found the flash sales an excellent source of good quality meat. purpleivyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01432472804539371422noreply@blogger.com
