Cash, Food ... and Cheap Holidays

 

This is the last of my cash until my pension hits my bank account, which will be soon I hope as I was down to £31.31 at the start of the week, and it's even less now that I've been tempted to buy a few things.  

I spent £10.39 in Sainsbury's the other day, all on things that I had either on a Nectar price or a personal offer, so it was worth getting them while they were cheaper.  Even if that does mean that I now have just £20.92 left in the kitty.

I really did fancy some ice-cream for the bank holiday weekend, so even if that was the only thing not on an offer, it was well worth the £3.25 it cost me.

This morning we went to Morecambe for breakfast and it was going to be a walk on the prom, but it was so chilly with a really low lying sea mist and a cold breeze, we didn't stay for long.

Before we left though I picked up my unused sugar packs from the café, and then we went into the animal charity shop for a quick browse.  Alan bought me this tiny little cup, which will be adorning my Christmas tree along with my other miniature china pieces later this year.

On the way home Alan wanted to stop at the big Sainsbury's to get a pack of steaks for his tea, so we called in.  The 'Bake at Home' baguettes were £2 a pack or 2 packs for £3.  So Alan gave me one of the packs along with the promise of half his cucumber and a carton of orange juice. 

 Who said romance was dead.  😄 

In other news ... my bus pass arrived this morning, so there has been much teasing and planning being done by Alan.  He fancies some holidays around England being done via bus routes and bed and breakfasts, it should work out a very cheap way to do things.  We'll see.
