Everyone raise your hand if you shop at Asda.Now, keep your hands raised if you know about the Asda price guarantee AND actually use it to check your receipts after you've shopped with them?I bet there's not too many of you left with your hands in the air is there?OK, I know you probably didn't raise your hands there but you get my point I hope. Lots of us shop at Asda whether it's just every now and again or to do our weekly shop and I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of us don't take advantage of the Asda price guarantee policy.Basically, the Asda Price Guarantee lets … [Read more...]

Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {26th May 2017}….
1) We're away on holiday to Milan next week (biggest bargain break ever) and I've been saving for our holiday spends. This week I've cashed in my loose change vases that I keep on the kitchen window sill (£18), my holiday savings jar where I save notes and try really really hard not to raid it on a regular basis (£125) and emptied my holiday savings bank account for the rest of my spending money. I've said lots of times that I want to travel as much as possible this year and the trips we've booked have been great value but its the spends that can break the budget so I'm trying really hard to … [Read more...]
Ten genius ideas to bulk out your meals and save money….
Do you know why people used to eat Yorkshire Puddings?It was because they were cheap to make and very filling so they were traditionally served as a starter before the main meal was served to take the edge of any hunger and to fill people up before the main meal, traditionally a roast beef dinner, was served.We always had our Yorkshire Puddings before our Sunday Dinner when I was growing up and even now, when we go to my Dad's for dinner, we have our Yorkshires before the rest of the meal which never fails to amuse the kids. In theory, because we've had our Yorkshire Puddings before … [Read more...]
Calming essential oils sleep spray….
I've mentioned my homemade essential oils sleep spray a few times now and today, I'm finally getting around to sharing it with you so you can make your own if you want to have a go.It's a calming blend of lavender and cedarwood essential oils an it's so cheap to make as I bought my essential oils from the chemist near us for a couple of pounds each and it feels like I've hardly used any out of them yet despite me making this sleep spray a good few times now.I first started making it when I went back to work in January as I was having trouble switching off on a night which meant that … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {19th May 2017}….
1) Last weekend we had a family day out at Flamingo Land!Anyone who's been to Flamingo Land will probably know that it's far from a frugal day out with the entrance fee being £38.50 per person but we found some buy one get one free vouchers on HotDealsUK so we got in for half price. Still not a great price for just one day but it was one of those perfect days with friends where you don't want the day to end so I think it was worth it in the end.I'll write up our thoughts about the day over the weekend if you're interested.2)Not only have I managed a week's worth of Slimming … [Read more...]
