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, I do want to 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.

Our half yearly budget review….
Every six month's or so, we sit down and do a full-on review of our monthly budget review which I usually share a bit about in my weekly five frugal things post but this time, I thought I'd do a whole post about it.Before I start though, I would say that our budget is looking good right now but it's taken years to get to this point from where we were when we started our frugal journey and I'm super proud of us! The healthier our budget starts to look, the more encouraged we are to be frugal and to save even more money because we have a goal in mind to pay off our mortgage in half the … [Read more...]

Homemade Shake n Vac….
Today I'm going all nostalgic on you and sharing some TV ads from my youth which I bet lots of you of a certain age will remember just as well as I do. The reason I'm sharing them is that I've made a batch of my own homemade Shake n Vac and the whole time I was making and using it, I couldn't help but sing the song.In fact, aside from the milky way advert with the two cars racing each other, the only other advert I can remember from when I was growing up is the Glade Shake n Vac one. They're both songs that remind me of watching TV with my Mam and Dad and always make me smile for that … [Read more...]
Garlic Roasted Cherry Tomatoes….
Today I'm sharing my new favourite recipe - Garlic roasted cherry tomatoes!I briefly mentioned in last Friday's Five Frugal Things post that I was going to share this recipe for garlic roasted cherry tomatoes with you today and I actually had two emails over the weekend asking for a sneak peek which was lovely and I was happy to share as the recipe was needed for a batch cooking session and a BBQ so today would have obviously been a bit late for both ladies. ;-)I think I said in my post that the tasty garlic roasted cherry tomatoes would be great on a pizza, amazing stirred through … [Read more...]
