Jeza, you can get your shopping delivered from about £3.00 if you are not too fussy about what day/time. It will also help you to bargain hunt within your chosen shop (I use Asda) and you can usually save more than the delivery price. I book my slot in advance and 'pretend' I am going to buy £25 worth of nappies to secure my slot and I can go back and change it endlessly up until 11pm the night before delivery. If you are not being hassled by doing the shopping in a rush it might take some pressure off you. PS - no one has accused you of neglecting Mic, they are just concerned about you too, x
