Welcome to my monthly pre-loved bargain post, which is always one of my favourite posts to write. 😀There's something so satisfying about finding something you genuinely need or love second-hand, especially when it costs a fraction of what it would have done new or even what it's worth now. This month’s pre-loved bargains are a bit of a mixed bag. There’s no real theme to them at all, just a few things I spotted while we were out and about that I liked enough to bring home. A couple were proper bargains, a couple were more about the memories attached to them, and at … [Read more...]
Five little things that have saved us money this week {18th September 2026}….
Every week I share five small things we’ve done to save a bit of money, make life easier or help us spend more intentionally. None of them are usually huge on their own, but that’s kind of the point. Those small choices add up over time and give us more room for the things that really matter — whether that’s days out, holidays, home projects, treats we’ll actually enjoy or just a bit more breathing space in the budget.It’s time for another Five Money-Saving Things I’ve Done This Week and I feel like there’s a bit of everything in this week’s five. I’ve got my usual bargain flowers (I … [Read more...]
How we make our holiday budget work for us….
We love going on holiday and it's something we're very happy to spend money on. In fact, one of the reasons we try to save money throughout the year is so we can afford to travel and have more holidays, so when we do go away we want to make the most of every minute.That's a big part of why saving money on holidays, for us, isn't about finding the absolute cheapest deal or spending as little as possible once we're there. There's not much point spending all year saving towards a holiday and then refusing to spend money on the things that would make that holiday better.Instead, we try … [Read more...]
6 Small Money Habits That Make Life Easier (and Save Money)….
I've realised over the years that it's often the little things I do without really thinking about them that make the biggest difference to how organised I feel with money.None of these are going to magically save thousands of pounds overnight and they're definitely not groundbreaking, but they're habits that either save us money, spread the cost of things or just make life that little bit easier.And honestly, anything that makes life easier while saving a few pounds along the way is a win for me. 😂I meal plan around what we already have Before I plan our meals for the … [Read more...]
How I Got £300 Worth of Christmas Perfume under £150….
I’ve already started my Christmas shopping this year and have been picking up little bits here and there for a while now, but this week I ticked off one of Miss Frugal’s bigger presents. And somehow, what started with me trying to remember the name of a perfume I liked ended with £300 worth of perfume costing me just £156.60. - even less when you take into account the extra Boots Advantage points and the cashback I got from Top Cash Back.It was one of those times where every little offer seemed to stack together perfectly, and it reminded me why I always take a few extra minutes before … [Read more...]
The Benefits and Trade-Offs of Selling Your House Fast….
Selling a house is never just about getting the most money you possibly can for it. Obviously that's a pretty big part of it, but there are so many other things going on when you're selling a house that sometimes getting it sold and being able to move on is just as important.People sell for all sorts of reasons. You might be moving for a new job, going through a separation, dealing with an inherited house, downsizing or you might just have found the house you really want and need yours sold before you lose it.In an ideal world you'd put your house on the market, have a queue of … [Read more...]
