Thank you 🙏 I think I'll be doing it for one more week, and then I'll need to work on restocking my freezer. I'm really happy with how it's gone, and it's made me more aware of some things I should stop buying! You are very welcome 😊 x
I think youve done well. Your freezer tho still looks well stocked. Mines looking ok, bit its just bits & bobs now. This week i seem to have ran out of lots of things, or running out, from household / vegetables/ baking cupboards/ meat, so my foid shop bill was bit higher this week. So €25 is your food budget for the pantry challenge, do you have a separate budget for your household/ toiletries?
Thank you! I hope you're having a good week. The freezer is getting there, I do have two of them, so there was a lot to start with. To be honest with you, I've had an abundance of cleaning/household/toiletries since that time we weren't allowed to go out! I don't know if you're able to say it on here!🤔🤷♀️ I built up a ridiculous amount and almost kept it at that since! That goes for jams, spreads, tinned products.... but I'm ashamed to say that it's just too much to manage! That's why I have been so grateful to do this challenge. The £25 a week has been for everything, but like I said at the beginning, I dont think it would have been enough if I didn't have stock already at home. So if you've done the month and you're only just running out of things, then it sounds like you've done amazing 👏
@@Withinabudget thats OK you stocked up on things, but like you say comes a point where you need to start getting through it. I haven't done the challenge of just spending x amount but I have been looking through my cupboards / freezer & like you pulling things out I want to use up & doing OK. But before I went food shop yesterday I had no vegetables left, no meat at all, no eggs, so was hard to make a meal. So still wabt to keep an eye on what's on cupboards etc so every week just pick a couple of things to use up, or those jars of things in fridge that you only use a bit out of. I hate waste so I try not to waste anything, especially food.
I am definitely at that point! I truly believe just picking a few things a week to use up really helps. Oh, those condiments in the fridge 🙄 I know what you mean! I don't like waste either 😊
The year is drifting by, almost February 😊
Good meal ideas and planning.
I'm finding that the older I get, the faster the years go by! Thank you 🙏 😊

Waiting to see the cornflake chicken 😊
I did get in a bit of a mess with that one, but it was very good 👍 😊
Hi another fab video. Can you tell me where your meal planner is from. Love that it is reusable 💞
Hi 👋 thank you! It's just a free printable that I found online, and I've placed it inside of a dry-erase pocket that I got from amazon 😊
