So after a little thought I grabbed a basket and decided to do a food bank shop. I wanted to encourage some kind of healthy eating but on a budget, then after that I grabbed a few things I would miss if I was on the receiving end of a food package then I moved on to dessert, nobody should miss out on dessert! Finally I found myself in the toiletries isle and I grabbed some loo roll and ladies sanitary products because I really would struggle without them! My total shop came to £10.87.
So what can you do to help?
Well there's the obvious foods like tins of beans, spaghetti and pasta but there are a few things that people might not think to pick up.
Pet food
Pets have to eat as well!
Toiletries
shampoo, soap, shower gel
Toothpaste/toothbrushes
Ladies sanitary products
These are so important, I know they can be a little expensive but imagine having to go without them!
Toilet rolls
Washing up liquid/cleaning products
So when you're next doing your weekly shop, even if you're on a tight budget please spare a thought for those who don't have a shopping budget, even if it's just a tin of beans.
