Looks like you have a good start to next week. It's hard keeping with it when you're feeling ill or emotional but good for you sticking with it. Maybe the longer you do it the easier it will become. My son's just come home from uni and the extra food cost is ...wow...and he doesn't even eat that much for a man. So I'm trying to budget too . Good luck x
@@diaryofmyfrugallife so glad i use mine when all 3 teenage girls are home saves so much time but i fully load it to reduce cost and water wastage . Glad you are happy with it. I am going to have to find ways to be a little less frugal for example i have a tumble dryer and refuse to use it unless i am absolutely desperate as it is sooo expensive yet but i am working on it lol .

@paulamartin6049 I always fully load the dishwasher. In the week it takes 3 days to fill up but on weekend is easier as I usually batch cook. My tumble dryer is on most of the time as I don't like to have the clothes drying inside. I have asthma and I find humidity aggravates it so my dehumidifiers and tumble dryer are on most of the time. I try to save elsewhere
@@diaryofmyfrugallife i agree wholeheartedly i love lindt choc to make my sweet treats so i save on other things like opting for basic pasta and potatoes. It can take me a few days too i see so.many people running theirs twice a day with lots of room to spare and i think what a waste and the environmental impact. My sister has breathing issues and she also uses her tumble when she cant dry clothes outside there is no way she would jeapordise her health either as she has 4 children and her husband died suddenly in a accident 3 years ago . Anyhow its lovely watching your uploads on how you are stretching out this months pay packet and i like sreing what traditional dishes you cook px
Great start to your challenge, well done ,its not easy, food is so expensive now. The pasta bake looked good 😊
@christineday1033 thank you 😊

@butterflyj1967 definitely gets better. Everything is so expensive and adds up quickly, we need to try and save when we can
How about making banna muffins or bread and having those at lunchtime or a banna porridge ???
I still eat bananas even if they are more ripe and brown. Anyway great ideas for using them up
How are you getting on with your new dishwasher?? Is it living up to your expectations px
Amazing! It really helps
