Cheap and Cheerful

I am definitely not a snob in the coffee, tomato ketchup, or where I shop.

Drinking decaffeinated, I purchased the own brand, and discovered it to be just as delicious as Nescafe. Heinze red sauce is so expensive, at nearly four pound for a small bottle. Does the low-cost version taste less vinegary? Probably not. I am getting used to it.

My shop is Aldi’s. Cheap and cheerful. I can get much more with my money. Also, the dog doesn’t have a signature product, but it does have to be wheat free.

Technology has to link to my budget. As long as it does the job, then it would be foolish to worry.

In the current political climate, I don’t think any party are there for the people who vote for them.

It is interesting to learn about other cultures; where I work, I have heard some beautiful stories. Even blogging, we are all diverse. Brilliant.

Am I a snob?

Not really, I hope not anyway.

  1. I buy most of my items when they are buy one get one free. The supermarket has new deals every week and they do repeat themselves so if I want something it is usually only a matter of waiting for it. I do like Aldi though. Their prices are really hard to beat.

  2. We also have a too good to go app. I don’t use it much, but my daughter does. You can get some real bargains there. Although Aldi is not as cheap as it used to be. Other shops are trying to compete, which helps all shoppers.

  6. There is nothing wrong with wanting to get the most you can for your hard-earned money and no, neither party cares about their voters.

    You could not possibly be a snob, ever !
