Anyone else think their shopping bill has about doubled??? I know it will be worth it but OMG why is it so much cheaper to eat crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I buy in bulk when things are on offer - like mugshots and Alpen Lights. The branded stuff is expensive but I'd never pay full price for the Alpen's for example. I have some plastic boxes in the understairs cupboard packed with them from the £1 a box offer recently!
I also bulk buy meat on offer. Earlier this year Tesco did half price on massive joints of beef, lamb, pork and gammon. I bought loads (probably 5 of each), split them into 2 person portions and froze them. We're still working through them now. I'll do a joint of gammon, have some one night roasted and turn the leftovers into at least 4 portions of gammon and cheese pasta, and freeze the leftovers for lunches.

i agree, eating healthy is definately expensive! government want families to eat more healthy and blame parents for obese children! i think the price of healthy foods should be lowered therefor aiding parents not blaming them!!
