Couldn't resist a quick comparison pic after seeing the photos of Jacko with Alan thingamajiggy (bedtime, had wine, brain no workie). Him with the specsy tour.

Anyway, I present NO LIP FILLERS MONROE. #pringlelips #orfacetune #biggerfatternosio

And an actual genuine smile. Not seen one of those on her for a while.
Makes you think

'limited edition' vest -

foodism awards red suit -

bedroom of lies -

dog cushions -

Anything spenny is fair game, but I'll add whatever fraus want.
My own benchmark is discretionary or 'non-essential' spend in the context of someone who claims to not be able to afford shower gel or 6p for butter instead of lard etc.
Jack moves things around constantly so try to avoid double counting.
Instagram is a literal and figurative gold mine (see TBC spoiler).
If I like your stocktake post it means I've seen it and will include in the next update.
Have fun.
Now duck off x
ETA just a side note, if some of this stuff was gifted from wealthy partners it just confirms HH2 was bollocks either way


Neighbour looks into their garden "that must have been a massive seagull..."
The 'vest' looks like a tshirt with the sleeves bunched up and is £3 (was £12) here - https://www.isawitfirst.com/products/limited-edition-slogan-print-oversized-t-shirt-white-jl37248

Unless it's some past season designer stuff that's been ripped off, that seems pretty reasonable TBH! - I know nothing about fashion, just bored and did a reverse image search!

Buy the saag aloo. Rinse off the spinach. Roast the potatoes badly, post them on Twitter, get roasted. Use the spinach to wash your hair, write a self pitying blog about it. Post Patreon link on blog, use proceeds to pay for saag aloo and lots of ❄. Hey presto! You have no dinner, but you do have a nascent career as Britains most beloved budget cook.
This reads like the opening scene of Trainspotting, I'm imagining Jack rampaging through Thorpe Bay with a pigskin hat and a pot of slop

That she suddenly started taking about, apropos of nothing whatsoever, in the middle of a talk in Edinburgh that was meant to be about her (much, much delayed still unpublished) recipe book, so talking about the last recipe book.
😂😂😂 I mean, we've all done similar. When we were teenagers. Had an inkling we were about to get caught out so blurted out some ludicrous and convoluted story that goes, 'Hahahaha. You'll never guess what happened <insert details of choice>? But it absolutely was NOT anything to do with me. LIFE IS SO UNFAIR. I HATE YOU. I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN'.

Growing your own food is a nice hobby when you have the time and resources. It is not a way out of poverty (time wise, you could probably use the time better doing paid work to pay for groceries, or do a study that would enable a promotion).

I really dislike middle class people who enjoy gardening suggesting this.
You dislike middle class people making ridiculous recommendations?? Then what's your beef with our Jack?

When I was an 18yr old single mum in 1974, I needed to claim whatever benefit it was back then, Income Supplement or Supplementary benefit 🤔, it was considered unsuitable for a woman and child to attend the unemployment office and they would come to your home. Very sympathetic. How times have changed !
You bloody tory!

She always gives me ‘my kids trying to bullshit me when they were 13’ vibes.

Now to be fair, Jack's last £20 shop was allegedly 42 meals which is like 47p. Still nowhere near enough.

What I find interesting is whilst there's a good number of repeat squigs who dedicate their accounts to calling out Jack, the sheer number of people calling her out still feels quite vast and diverse?

I wonder if Jack usually stocks up on Pringles in the run up to Christmas when they are on offer to last her through the year? What will she do this year if they aren't due to price rises? A couple of ml filler and a lip flip? 🤔.

Pickled WHAT and WHAT?????????
Classic the 4 day old beans salad - serves 0. A real high point in the Mel Donte campaign. Good times.
Who remembers when Jack said she was buying a 130volt fridge to save on electric? Or that she prepping for using the camping gas stove for cooking 🤣 they’re SO expensive to buy gas for.
