Not really, I used to shop everyday and spend about £30 each time but now that I've planned all the meals for the week and bought only what I need, it's a LOT cheaper. I spent about £70 for this shop which is pretty good I think!

DH is a stickler for freshness and was always dubious about online food shopping but everything came this morning looking absolutely beautiful and fresh so I think I'm a convert now! Also with online shopping, I can see all the special offers and really make the most of it!

This is my shopping for delivery next thursday from Waitrose!!!
