The First Shopping of November

 

Shopping - Sainsbury's £16.49

I didn't really need much shopping this week, but I did fancy some cucumber and Alan needed me to pick up a few things for him while he was away for work.  So a trip to Sainsbury's it was. 

 As you can see I got tempted by far more than the cucumbers!!  The coffee was on a reasonable offer, but nowhere near as good as it used to be.  The offer used to always be from £7.50 down to £4 at least three times a year.  This time it was £7.75 down to £6, so the offer was half as good as it used to be.  Luckily I already have (I think) two jars still in the cupboard so I just bought one extra while this offer was on.

It's the time of year when my lips really suffer and I needed to stock up on some moisturiser for them.  I have an awful habit of picking at my lips if they get too flaky and then I get into a cycle of dry flaky lips that goes on and on.  I need to try and nip this in the bud. 👄

The haddock fillets and the Cornetto were just a complete splurge, I fancied some fish and I haven't had a dessert after a meal for quite a while, and sometimes a Cornetto just really hits the spot.  Of course fruit and yogurt would possibly have been a much less processed option, but hey I'm no angel. 😄

My receipt, the crossed out things were the bits I got for Alan, chocolate cream éclair cakes, a large bottle of milk and a pack of cooked chicken pieces.

The cash machine wasn't working on my into the store so I had to pay for my shopping by card, but as if by magic it was working on my way out, so I got this month's £100 while I was there.  

I do love shopping with real money these days.
