Shopping happiness

YS shopping haul!

Total value of products bought: £50.70
I paid: £11.26

That's a 77.79% saving on full price!

Now, it was the Coop, so the food was massively overpriced to begin with, but I'm still rather chuffed.



For my pennies I got:
3 packets ham
3 packets chicken
2 packets stewing steak
Pack chicken thighs
Pack chicken breasts
Pack turkey mince
Pack beef mince
2 packets pre-cooked chicken breast
Tub of coronation chicken
Tub of egg mayo
Tub of hummus
2 sausage rolls
4 pints organic skimmed milk
Small gluten free loaf
White loaf
12 yoghurts
2 packs of beansprouts
2 packs of chicken kievs
Packet of breaded chicken fillets

BOOM!

Soup sagas

I am a big snooker fan. As such, when the tickets to next year's World Championships went on sale, on May 1st, I devoted the day to getting the best tickets I could. I got some rather fab ones, and will be giving a couple of them to the current Mr Badger, as his xmas and birthday gifts. The tickets do sell out on thr day they go on sale, so I had to buy them.  Basically, this is my justification for blowing £300 on snooker tickets, which has had the rather obvious consequence of leaving me utterly skinted.

As such, I am primarily going to be living off soup for the rest of the month. Behold today's offering!


Heinz tomato soup, from a packet. From Approved Food, so mega cheaps. Also gluten free crackers from the same place. Not mega cheap, but as cheap as I've ever seen gf shizzle, so I bought a ton of them.


17p portion crackers

11p portion soup

28p for my main meal. There's clearly not enough calories here, but as I am a pretty tubby badger, it'll be no bad thing for me to living off soup for the next 11 days.
