Mrs D your diet is very very different from our household, my boys would be climbing the walls with 23 sugared or frozen items, I dont think they get that much junk in a year. We have to buy wholemeal, wholegrain, unprocessed as possible, fresh fruit veg and no processed meats. Very different shopping lists, although I still cant see that $125 contains many real meals do you have to buy dinner type food as well?

I did have a look on the Coles website, but they don't seem to sell fox, so I can't tell you how much you can save by catching your own instead of buying !

By the way Pick N pay is a Coles brand.
(I only bought some Kangaroo steaks myself)

I think I have driven past that store. Is it a huge white warehouse thing on the right as you go into N. Brisbane? I was tempted to have a look I will put that on to my list of things to do when we next drive in.
