Final Food Shop of June

Might as well do another food shop photo to round off the month................

The world and his wife were outside Aldi at 8am on a very hot morning waiting for it to open to get shopping done and home again.

I was there too - lots of empty spaces in the fruit and veg section due to a late delivery but I got the things on my list. I noticed the icecream/ice lolly freezers were decimated!


Left to right. Bunch beetroot £1.39, Tender-stem broccoli £1.45 (their heads of calabrese were looking sad and yellowing just like the week before).1Kg nectarines £2.39; 6 mini apples 99p; mango 69p (one of their on offer special 6 - they are usually 88p); 2  peanuts @ 59p = £1.18; crumpets 45p; 6 medium free range eggs £1.49; 4 pints semi skimmed milk £1.65; ground coffee 1 decaf and one normal @ £2.49p = £4.98; mayo 89p; and off the edge of the photo is a pack of six small packs of mini cheese bakes 99p.


Total for these was £19.19p
For the month ..............£50.42 + £13.35 + £19.92 + £19.19 = £102.88 - Much the same as May even though I'd been hoping for less.

With photos of the food shopping all month I could see what fruit and veg I'd had during the month, seems like a goodly mix.

*************************

According to the Met Office forecast the exceedingly hot weather has gone and yesterday's high was 26℃ rather than the 37℃ of Friday. The coming week should be in the mid 20's too but  the long range forecast says we may well get another hot week in July.

Back Tomorrow

    I saw that too - about another heatwave, I mean. It seems to be an increasingly frequent event at the moment, doesn't it?

    A lovely lot of fruit and veg there. It's a good time of year for variety!
    Have a great week. xx

      We are so lucky to have a good selection - even if most are imported

    I keep a tally of which fruit and veg we're eating so I can make sure we're getting enough variety. It's much easier to do in the summer when we're growing lots in the garden.

    That's a really good selection of fruit and veg for the month, and a decent spend too. I was going to do a post about 'my final shop of June' too. 😄

      and I forgot courgettes from the garden and raspberries - although I can't eat them anymore. I seem to be desperately short of blog post ideas due to not going anywhere.

    Indonesia is one of the countries in Southeast Asia where fruits and vegetables are affordable and easy to find. Growing older is inevitable; however, living a healthy life is a choice.

    Happy Monday to you all, guys!
