Happy New Year!I bet lots of New Years resolutions have been made this week, many of which will involve saving money in one form or another so I'm hoping that there's going to be lots of entries this month.I was a bit sill last month and I didn't set the dates on the linky right so it was only open for a couple of days rather than the full month - I've checked and double checked this month so it should be OK! ;-)I really do want people to see that being frugal and thrifty isn't the same as being tight or stingy and that there are some many easy and fun ways to save money so the … [Read more...]
Is saving money one of your New Years Resolutions?
Every year when I write my New Years Resolution list, the same one is always right there at the top of my list - SAVE MONEY. Actually, trying to save money is always a high priority here but making it a New Years Resolution always seems to focus me on it even more than usual. As I know lots of you will be trying to focus on the same things as me I thought I'd do a quick reminder of my Money Makeover series from last year which was all about reviewing your finances and making them better....Week One – Money Makeover Introduction Week Two – Sort our your spending Week Three – Dealing … [Read more...]

There’s no place like home….
Last month marked our five year anniversary of living in this house and although I still stalk Right Move at regular intervals during the year, I do love living here and can't see us moving any time soon.It's a new build house that we bought while it was still being built so we got to choose all the fixtures and fittings and once it got to a certain stage of the build, the developers were happy for me to just pop in and wander around while I pretended that I needed to measure something but really just wanted to see the house again, just to imagine what it would be like with us living in … [Read more...]
Moneysaving at Christmas….
Christmas can be an expensive time of year for most of us and it's so easy to overspend on things you don't really need and end up paying the price in January (and beyond)!I've put together a little list of things that help me to save me money at this time of year in the hope that some of them will also help you to save a little bit too. A lot of them are genuinely common sense and you're probably already doing most of them but it's always worth a quick reminder, isn't it? ;-)If you're not going to be visiting someone until after Christmas then you could always buy their presents in … [Read more...]
