I had a few bitsleft to get so went with Tiddler att lunchtime to Sainsburys as had points i could use to buy it.
Fightiung for car park spaces they were and hardly any turkeys or chickens left. Someone went to bakery and heard the woman say no run out of them.
I havent bothered with the chocolate log as doubt if my lot will eat it will just make some cakes at home instead and have only got my usual 2 loaves in freezer but wasnt much bread about ewither.


Glad all mine is done now really dont want to go out tomorrow

Mel - what makes you think that a trolley full of food will be wasted. I had a trolley full yesterday and I can assure you nothing will go to waste. I have a large gathering all day Christmas Day - perhaps this lady will too.

We normally do our weekly main shop on a Thursday (hubby's job permitting)
We shopped tonight and out bill came to around £190 - that included everyday things such as washing tablets, coffee & teabags. Milk bread cheese, cereal etc. Meals to cover the rest of the week. Then we bought meat for Xmas and boxing day, sweets, crisps & choccies, bottle of wine for Xmas lunch, Xmas pudding, various small cakes , sausage rolls, pork pies etc for Xmas & boxing day tea, Nice biscuits, coke, few cans of bitter for hubby & my dad, salad stuff etc.

Tomorrow we want to go to our Sainsbury's to get a few other bits we cant get in Tescos

Nothing will go to waste, and all wont be eaten in 2 days. Sweets & crisps & the like will last for most of the week if not longer. Why shouldn't we treat ourselves if we worked hard to pay for it ?

Why should I live on bread and dripping because other people are starving ?
it wont change the world and if i want to be picky I could say why don't you save your next tenner you waste on a gr subscription & send it to a charity for the starving to buy grain for a month instead
