Plumbs I am bad at size and quantity unless I see things, I used to end up with the wrong quantities all the time
, however, now I am too poor to shop on line, we just buy the basic stuff and stock up on reduced stuff, I now have to eat things I am not fond of and its definitely having an effect on my system, and my weight, myself and my daughters need a meat and veg diet and low carb and dairy, I can go into a very sick state after a glass of milk but up to that amount daily is fine.
I also want to know where you get that soya protein, when I last ate soya mince, i had very bad indigestion for ages....
With all the current cuts and down turns, I think we all need the opportunity to buy cheap food, otherwise, people will be stealing more, from shops, each other and allotments!!
I have never had a mega budget, we have run this big house on a tiny income now for 5 years and got buy, the business does very well, hardly ever empty but the costs are far too high and my husbands jobs come and go, so we never can have a big spend up unless we have a tax rebate or something, in fact, the very last bit of our savings has now paid for repair work and the fuel bill, just grateful my children are doing very well and all we have to look after are the dogs and 4 hens
I always managed to cook good meals but I am not enjoying my high carb cheap diet at all!!!! For breakfast Steve has porridge, the cheap oats etc, I usually have toast as porridge upsets me for the day too!!
