living on a budget

£4 per weekday and £10 for groceries for the week.
that's it's gonna be till sept.
hopefully.. until i start to try shopping again .. -_-
so far for the last few days has been okays.
spent like £8 for groceries for this week. some beef, some chicken wings( which i completely finished during the weekend) which included half a kg of fruit and nut cadbury.
today was 2 for £2 sausage rolls from tescos.
nothing else happened.
my friend's father died of lung cancer. i wish them condolences. it was so sudden apparently. but i have had no contact with them since i left KL/miri.
i heard it from another friend who was in miri who msged me asking me about my blood pressure as he said he was scared now.
i asked. scared of dying ?
lol.
anyways, it's best to be preventing than trying to cure it when it comes.. so i really have to switch back to no salt diet.. T_T

kk
that's it.
season 6 of 24 was like erm... okays... it was basically a repeat of the plots.. hope that's the last of 24.

it just doesnt cut it anymore.. it would be good if they came out with a movie concluding the whole of 24.

I don't think I can live on 10 a week budget. I get a few stuff from Waitrose and it's already like 9 something already and that's hardly for a week and no meat!! -_-

yeah. i used to make sure i'd spend only ten quid on groceries each week, too! but that's like, almost 10 yrs ago. ;P
moo: long time no see lol can't read ur chinese blog as well.
well that's because u shop from waitrose :P expensive place. i shop from where all the peasants and slaves shop. [morrisons]
*there's a pun intended if anyone from the supermarket i go to reads this as well*
but the stuffs i buy basically is for 1 person so that why it's usually enough.
meat, i buy cheapest meat like £1.50 for beef, and another £1.50 for wings or some diced turkey
then i will have enough for the week lor.

piffy : same laa... just depends on what u buy only mah lol :P
i basically can spend alot if i don't budget cos its like oooo i see that i like, i buy .. then turn out i buy too many too much :P

Mr. Kipling's Battenberg Cake. looks nice..

hmmm been so busy on friday forgot to update. will post 2 post to console myself today. to the cake. cake looks cute. but tastes horrible. maybe it was because i bought it cheap from sainsbury . it's original price was £1.29. but i bought it for 49p. cheap as i was. maybe that's the reason the cake tasted bad.. but the expiry wasnt till anohter 2 days time. :P anyways, it tasted like smelled like cough syrup. u know those red coloured ones. tasted okays. the outer layer is just icing erm or rather sugar.. no ideas waht that was but it was SWEET. then inside, just like the normal sponge cake. all in all.. i wouldnt buy it ever again. :P here are the pics.

i went to camden on sat and almost got rammed by a stupid green car on the way back. anyways, i was bored. and it was a nice day. don't know anything bout tour de france, or wimbledon. took my bike out. and cycled down towards camden. it was a change from cycling to work. i spent £7 in sainsburys cos they were having a half price sale on john west's tuna in cans. the usual price is about £3.19. bought some stuffs.. ( coulnd't buy a lot cos i don't wanna ride home on a punctured bike) but i bought too many as well. i bought jaffa biscuit for 69p. for 24 pieces. finished it b4 sat was over. took some photos on the way. went into o2 to see if i could get any nice phones for free. turned out that i couldn't because i havent paid any phone bills since last year. looks like i'm gonna hvae to switch my sim card to a pay as you go thingy. then i went to the outdoor emporium to take a look at the karrimor travelpack. i dunno why .. that one seems to call out to me other
