Impulse buying!
Come on - hands up all those who do/have done!Normally - I do not - I buy whatever I have gone out to buy and that is it.
But ...
This morning I discovered (shock, horror) no bread in the bread bin, none in the freezer and - even worse - no bread flour. Slapped wrists for seriously bad housekeeping - coat on and walk to the little family bakery in the next village to buy a loaf of bread. Big mistake - they were just emptying the ovens and my flavour buds lost all sense of responsibility!
Came home with two sausages rolls, two scotch eggs, one chicken pie and one bacon/egg quiche - oh - and a small wholemeal loaf!
Wicked or what??

Re: Impulse buying!
I am quite a disciplined shopper. Sometimes l see things like Fox’s Chocolate cookies at a good price and l put them in my trolley.When l’ve finished my shopping l look in my trolley and l think, do l really need them? So l put them back.
I then go home and make a cake which l know won’t contain all the rubbish in shop biscuits.
I did buy a 5 litre can of Dulux Matt paint on impulse the other week. When l use it, is another story. It will probably become an ornament!
