Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things. We all have different financial situations and we're all frugal for different reasons. ;-)1) I love when I can start one of these posts with a good bargain bunch of … [Read more...]
Essential Oil Mermaid Bath Bombs….
I'm loving sharing my little DIY projects with you lately and I've been dying to share the essential oil mermaid bath bombs with you since Miss Frugal made them a few weeks ago.Miss Frugal went through a bit of a phase where she'd spend most of her pocket money in Lush on those expensive bath bombs that they sell for anywhere between £3 and £5!I have a rule where I try not to interfere with what the kids want to spend their own money on because I don't think they'll learn if they're simply doing what I tell them to do when it comes to money. Does that make sense?So even … [Read more...]

Three things I won’t give up to save money….
Is there anything you wouldn't give up to save money?That's a pretty tongue in cheek title because there's actually nothing that I wouldn't give up if it was a choice between that or paying my bills and feeding my family.But if I look at my current situation, which is debt free and trying to save for our emergency fund whilst overpaying our mortgage each month, there are things in my life that I won't give up without a fight...Giving these three things up would obviously give us more money to put towards our goals each month and would build up the emergency fund and pay down … [Read more...]

July’s Frugal Fails – because I’m not always as frugal as you might think!….
This may come as a surprise to you (although more than likely not) but I'm not always a shining example of frugal-ness. ;-) I spend so much time on here sharing ways to save money and ideas on how to be frugal and rarely share much of the non-frugal side of my life so I thought I'd start a monthly post to share some of the slightly non-frugal things I've done! This is the second post in my frugal fails series- the first is here if you want to see last month's frugal fails. Frugal Fail #1 - A Meal Kit from M&SThis one's not on me really as I completely planned … [Read more...]
