I got dragged out of my flat by some compadres and told to show them how to shop on the cheap, so i proceeded to get the following bargains-
8x Pork Chops £2
1x Large Garlic and Cheese Bread £0.60p
6x Mince Pies £0.54p
1x Tin of Soup (dented) £0.34p
1x Pack of Scones £0.20p
1x Pack of Mushrooms £0.30p
Total: £3.98p
With some bits i bought last week, if im careful, thats the main components to at least 6 days luxurious eating there......totalling 66p a day.
-Its completely unscientific, ive got cereal, milk, tea, toiletries, potatoes, veg, oil, tins of stuff (emergency stocks) etc.... in my cupboards, but still last week i was taking less than £1 a day to the supermarket.....a fair bit left over (particuarly beef)
Its a case of learning when your local supermarket carries out its evening reductions then loiter, loiter, loiter some more THEN POUNCE- only expect bargains with short life products (meat, bread)- its not brain science, tens of thousands of cat ladies and war veterans across the whole of the uk shop like this every evening......its nothing to be ashamed of.....unless you smell of cat wee or still wear khaki.
Luckily bank of mum has stepped in once more, and i have some work lined up when i pop home next week.....meaning i'll most definately be using some thriller-esque dance moves come next weekend. :)
ps: I got acknowledgement from my University of the completed (no more evidence required) application for more money, I should DEFINATELY know how much and when I get some more debt clearing/living help (if any) by November 20th!
