Thanks so much to everyone who linked up a Fabulously Frugal post last month. 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 more people who share their posts, the more chance of that happening.As promised, I've pinned them all of the posts to my 'All things thrifty, frugal and money saving!' board on Pinterest and I wanted to share my favourite two on here as well:Just click on the photos to visit the posts. It would be great to see even more of you joining … [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...]

Fabulously Frugal #1….
Last week I wrote about our visit to the Festival of Thrift but what I don't think I said was that it opened my eyes to just how many ways there were to save money and to be frugal and thrifty. I came home last Saturday night and scribbled down ideas and thoughts until my hand hurt and I still have more things in my head that I need to get down on paper.But here's the thing, even if I filled my notebook with ideas, I still wouldn't be covering even a fraction of it!So, as I work through my notebook and start to make a bit of sense out of my scribblings, I'm looking to you all. I want … [Read more...]
Crocktober….
I genuinely can't believe that it's October already!September is usually a month where I usually feel a bit all over the place as we settle into a routine after the Summer Holidays and this year was no different other than the fact that the older the kids seem to get, the more after school activities they seem to be doing. I love the activities they're doing at the moment and I really feel like they are getting something out of them.But.... It makes life pretty difficult as far as sitting down and eating together as a family most nights seeing as we have nights where activities cross … [Read more...]
