Thankyou
(sorry for late reply)
I'm ok, got my shop done under budget too. I'm not going hungry, please don't worry
.
There is a 'Food Hub' in my village every Wednesday where you can pick up items going out of date very soon. The charity has grown so much over the last 2 years that they are getting more and more from the local supermarkets which is sad but good at the same time. No food wasted - or something like that is their motto.
Anyway, I went there first, £1 for your entrance fee, bread, veg and fruit. Everything else is 10p/20p/50p. Manage to fill 2 shopping bags full of goodness and goodies (for my child) for less than £5. Even treated myself to some flowers.
I then went to Aldi and did the rest of my shop. Thanks to the veg I got from the Hub I've made a massive bolognese tonight that will do a few dinners.
Honestly, thankyou for your kindness from the bottom of my heart
