3 weeks later... run out of food.

Good the parents are back this week, I decided to be as money saving as possible and empty the fridge/freezer until all was left was stuff I couldn't make food out of or duplicates (have a million mini pizzas) Soooo empty.

Left with £60 for 3 weeks. Yes I spent it all. No you're not having any of it back. Thinking about it, that's far cheaper than getting a stranger to look after the dogs, so they got a good deal there.
