I buy Golden Virginia instead of Regal King size. That saves a few quid over a week.

I don't buy anything. It's surprising what tasty scraps you can find in bins.

mickey the way things are looking we will all be raking the bins

I use the convection oven feature on my microwave. Not used the "big oven" for ages.

I buy the short-dated stuff in Tesco and Morrisons, freeze it if we're not going to eat it straight away.
Those M&S chicken breasts sound lovely, Kate, did it taste good?

I make a really strict list of meals, snacks and treats when I do my on-line shopping. If the total goes over £100 I go back and change it - sad, but satisfying.
