I must say Mrs. L was quite meticulous with her (long) list (16 items to be exact) which I had to re-write to my liking (as she had it in Italian). It is amazing what £20 can get you if you shop right.

When I went to buy the groceries and the store was luckily not too far from Mrs. L's house, I realized that I would have to get the exact items and supermarket brand for each item as else I would go over £20.

After decent (long) time shopping while looking for the exact brand for each item, I still had a one choice to make: and I went with the original (long) baguette, rather than a short one available, and whola, entire shopping cost £19.51.

On my way back, the short walk suddenly looked ---long--- with all the groceries which have a way to weigh you down. But having made the week for Mrs. L by delivering all she asked for made my run back home quite happy and satisfying.
