Today I'm sharing the perfect spicy bean burger recipe with you!A couple of week's ago we went bowling to a place called TenPin in York and treated ourselves to a cheeky burger and fries while we were there. I had a spicy bean burger and it was honestly the nicest burger I've had in a long time!I've been trying to recreate the recipe but I couldn't pin down the various different tastes and I can't find any info online so my version is very different to the one I was originally trying to recreate. It's still a lovely spicy bean burger though so I thought I'd share it with … [Read more...]
5 un-frugal things that I spend my money on….
Mr Frugal was having a read through of my blog last night and he made me smile when he said how frugal I sounded from all my frugal posts this month and he wondered what you would think of some of the very un-frugal things that I choose to spend some of the money I save on.He said that some of you would be very un-impressed with some of the things I spend my money but I think he's wrong. I said you would understand that one of the reasons that I choose to be frugal in some areas of my life is so that I can be un-frugal in others.Let's see what you think of some of the un-frugal things … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {3 March 2017}….
1) Did you see my post last week where I mentioned how we'd booked a cheeky little family trip to Milan for the May half term week? Don't worry, I'm not going to try and class that as something frugal (although it was an AMAZING deal costing us less than a few nights in London going on the train) but I did do something during the booking process that saved us a fair amount of money so I get to class that part as frugal, don't I? I didn't book any hold luggage as there were extra fees for that that would have bumped the price of our booking up. Looking at the size of the cabin baggage allowed … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {24 February 2017}….
1) Don't judge me but I went to see the new Fifty Shades of Grey film last week with my lovely friend. We could have gone to the big cinema in the next town and watched the film in comfort when the film was released but we decided to wait a bit longer and go to our local cinema which is ridiculously cheap compared to the bigger chains.It's such a pretty little family run cinema and it's had a recent refurb with new chairs so it was so comfortable and well worth the ticket price. They do drinks and snacks from a cute little stand and the costs aren't any higher than you'd pay in a … [Read more...]
My Favourite Ted Talks about Money and Consumerism….
Have you heard of Ted Talks?I'd heard of them but never actually watched or listened to one of the talks until recently when I was off work with very little to do through the day. I realised after getting a little bit too interested in the lives of some US vloggers that even if I had little energy to do anything but watch Youtube, I could at least watch something with a little more substance.That's when I decided to finally check out some Ted Talks which are basically short (18 minutes or less) and I discovered a whole library of talks about just about any subject you can imagine. I … [Read more...]
How to save BIG MONEY on your existing mortgage….
Your mortgage payment is probably the biggest expenditure on your monthly budget (unless you have a very fancy car or very expensive tastes ;-)) and if you're anything like me, you'll often look wistfully at the amount on your bank statement and wonder what life would be like if you were mortgage free.Or what about if you've had bad credit in the past and have one of those bad credit mortgages with the slightly higher interest rates. I bet you look at the amount you pay and wish you could reduce the amount owing so that you can apply for a standard mortgage once your payments have been … [Read more...]
