Skint gourmet

If December was the month for over-indulgence, then after a very expensive end to 2008, January has certainly been the month for surviving on left-overs, scraping pennies from the money box to buy a packet of digestives (no really, I experienced that yesterday when I went to buy biccies for a meeting) and whinging about the fact the credit crunch doesn't seem to mean food is getting cheaper.

So, an email from the Motley Fool giving me a price comparison for the cheapest supermarkets to buy fruit and veg from has been most welcome. I've also enjoyed reading threads in our food forum about what food you can buy with your last tenner, and have gone back to basics with TheSite.org's articles on eating like a pauper and easy recipes which tend to be cost effective.

However, the thing to really get my attention is any tips related to eating my favourite food - curry. So, I'm loving this credit crunch curry video - and trust me chick peas are really yummy. Seriously.
