Re: What Preps are you doing this week

Hell of a job, it really gets me itching to do something similar in my back garden.

Re: 5 POUND PREPS

I popped into Sainsburys after work and got:
4 tins of potatoes £1
5 tins of carrots : £1
5 tins of beans : £1
5 tins of mixed veg : £1
1 kg bag of salt : 30p

I think each week and do this but switch out the different tins, probably meat one week and veg another.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week

Hi, this is my first post in this thread. Well this week I've moved into a new house and from the poster above I totally agree that insurance even just contents insurance as a renter is something as little as £10 a month and really takes a lot of hassle out of people taking your stuff. Anyway I've m...

Hi from North Oxfordshire
