Good buys this week were pears $1/kg and teabags half price - I refuse to pay $11 for 80 herbal teabags, so when its half price I stock up.  The 1kg block of cheese on special cost the same price as a 500g block.

We had less trips to the corner shop this week. Once to get milk, bread, bacon, capsicum, tomatos & cheese to make pizzas and a second time to buy some junk food after a very stressful day at work - a habit I need to break!

Corner shop spending: $50.47

Total spend this week:$193.29

We ate a 1kg minced meat, an apple pie and two packets of frozen veggies from the freezer this week and two packets of soup from the pantry.

I cooked the apples from last week into applesauce and froze them and we also froze 6 meals of Bolognese sauce after making spag bol with the mince.

This weeks plan - eat more out of the freezer & pantry & reduce food waste.
