Cheap white bread is just that cheap white bread. Full of tit and not much else. I admit I used to like it but now I'd choose no bread rather than that.

I am not a foodie my a long stretch but I do like food, even when I was a student I got paid I used to take my wages to the shop on the way home and bought my shopping, I budgeted 20 pounds and I bought decent food to last me the week apart from fresh tips ups like bread and milk and some fruit and because I was a student I used to buy big loaves of bread and big bottles of milk with good dates and they lasted me most of the week, so i maybe only had to do one or two top ups.

What I had left I used for socialising and living. It wasn't much whereas my friends ate tit and had fabulous lives and great clothes.

🔺 I'm an estate agent 🔺 She is not paying less than £1400 rent in that area for that property. Plus bills. She's paying herself 30k at least to come out with 2k after tax.
What's Living Wage again?
Just looked on Rightmove and there are decent 2 bed flats in Southend from £750/pcm. That’s a saving of at least £650 per month on rent alone, plus the reduced electricity/gas bills and lower council tax. But I guess Jack knows what’s best for SB, and that seems to be to keep him in an oversized, cold house full of mummy’s premium items, feeding him rotting meat

I’m sure I remember a tweet saying she sold her DSLR camera, that one time, along with all her cutlery, dinosaurs etc.
The camera was the last thing she sold even after all selling all of her lightbulbs so she didn't starve to death IIRC. Then the ability to sell those 8p photos that were mounted with cheap PVA and sold on for £24 was the only thing to heal the hole left in her heart and help her rediscover her love of photography :LOL:

I've had a bit of a grunk so apologies if this is duplicated, but spotted this news story on IG recently - Alex Hollywood is ALL IN JACK'S NICHE.

Alex often likes a lot of Jack's posts on IG. She also posts some lovely-looking, relatively simple recipes.

Also she's totally having the last laugh now that her former husband is a tubby, barmaid-disturbing hasbeen, so there's that too.

ETA: LORDY. She mentions draining beans, chickpeas, and tinned fruit...WATCH OUT.

Cheap white bread is okay for toast / toasted sandwiches or if it’s all you can afford. It certainly doesn’t make the best sandwiches- that soft, soft, soft pillow like bread she claims to make would (I’m sure she said something like that but I could be doing a Monroe and chatting tit)

ETA she was asking for a recipe for soft bread 🤷🏻‍♀️ She didn’t claim she made soft pillowy bread

That brown sugar and apple slop looks repulsive. It looks like the apple has been chopped up then forgotten and left to oxidise all day.

It looks like wallpaper paste porridge! Oh and I don't believe her Son took that photo of her, not with her tendency to set up photo shoots of herself 'working'.
I agree. I think she has claimed he took the photo, partly to counter suggestions a few pages back that Jack doesn’t need to worry about waking her son up at 4am because he’s not actually there.

Her 'second phone' is the only phone I have 😂 How poor are you again?

Oh sorry Jack, I just heard the panicked scream from your massive bungalow.....IT WAS A GIFFFFFFTTTTT

She's got so many gifts that bungalow could double for Santa's bleeping workshop.

If those Boglin-esque loaves she made are anything to go by, I'd say she does not make pillowy soft bread 😬

The World Health Organisation has gently firm words on what % of income is the max that should be spent on housing to avoid housing stress. This relates to mortgage or rent. When I find the paper I'll link it. It seems really important, or at least struck a chord with me; I've always kept it in mind.
Found the credible source. I make no comment on anyone's choices. When Jack is reading here, I hope it is food for thought for her: "One of the more common measures of housing affordability is the "30/40 rule". Housing affordability is compromised when households in the bottom 40% of income distribution spend more than 30% of their household income on housing, adjusted for household size (Yates & Milligan, 2007). Those who do not have affordable housing according to this criterion are said to be experiencing "housing stress", which may be measured in terms of people's subjective experiences of managing housing costs (Yates & Milligan, 2007) and/or material hardship."

I think she has multiple phones for her multiple identities.
Nokia burner for her poverty princess schtick. IPhone for her shots of her cotswold/ballet dancing/Dyson fan filled middle class mummy role and a Samsung with the fancy camera for her sexy madame shots 🎥

Sourdough bread if you can buy it/make it is so much nicer than cheap white bread. I don't believe for one minute Jack is eating her own slop. I think she gets an Ocado or Waitrose delivery of posh ready meals because she hates cooking, food prep etc. Her lack of knowledge about food betrays her and she is lazy AF.
Also porridge is tasty and nutritional with ground flaxseed on top as well as seasonal berries, nuts and seeds. It makes for a slightly sweet meal with texture and crunch.



Jack as you read here, I have a new word for you to play with. See if you can spot it in my next sentence.
Your floccinaucinihilipilification of non blue tickers offends me deeply.

Ah, but if the 67 patreon subscribers who have joined in the past fortnight are there for the ThriftyShadesOfBeige Club then Jack's just topped up her monthly income by £670.

I've been up since 5 this morning. I won't be having two lunches. That is disordered eating. I had 1 egg on toast at breakfast, plenty until 12.30.
Totally agree. I struggle when she says this sort of thing. It's taken me a long time to recognise my own issues, and often wonder if I'm projecting. It's good to see that other people pick up on it too.

Maybe Cack is actually Santa Claus. House full of gifts, only works one day a year?
