You honestly don't have to spend a lot of money to have a great Christmas so I thought that I'd share with you 50 ways that you can have an amazing Christmas on a budget with you today!Every year I hear about the amount of money people spend and read stories of people who are still paying off their Christmas debt halfway to next Christmas and it makes me sad. Not sad because of how much is money is actually spent because I totally get people who spend more than they probably should (I may occasionally be guilty of this) and ultimately, it's their money to spend how they want.No, … [Read more...]
Christmas Traditions from around the World….
Thanks to our Christmas Family Traditions Advent calendar this year, we've been enjoying lots of lovely family time together so far this month and thanks to my blog all about Christmas Family Traditions, I've been enjoying hearing what other people are getting up to.I thought it might be nice to share a bit of a round up of traditions around the world because in the short time since I set up my Christmas traditions blog, I've realised just how differently we all celebrate Christmas. We can all enjoy each other's traditions wherever we are in the world so I hope you find some new ones to … [Read more...]
What to put in a Christmas Eve Box….
Christmas Eve is my favourite day out of the whole festive period and although I have a post planned to tell you all about our day and what we do a little bit closer to the day itself, I'm going to tell you about one part of the day now. I'm going to tell you about our Christmas Eve box which we've been doing ever since the kids were born - in fact, I think we've been doing it since before Christmas Eve Boxes were even a thing.We started doing a Christmas Eve box because I used to have something similar when I was little and it was a tradition that we decided to continue with our two … [Read more...]
How to have an amazing Christmas, even when Santa’s skint….
Christmas can be a difficult time when you're struggling to make ends meet. And it's even harder if your children have a wishlist as long as their arm that they just keep adding to every time they watch TV and another advert pops up for something they desperately need. ;-)How do you tell the little ones that they won't be getting everything on their list when they think that Santa is in charge of bringing the presents. How do you tell them that you can't afford what they want, even when they're non-believers and you can already anticipate the snapchats on Christmas morning of their … [Read more...]
Do you have a Christmas Cupboard….
Do you have a Christmas cupboard?We do, because as much as I say that you don't need to spend a fortune on extra food and drink over Christmas and that a giant tub of Twiglets is never a good idea, even if it's in a Christmassy box, I am partial to the odd food and drink treat over the festive period.Rather than do a big Christmas shop right before Christmas and spend a fortune on the treats we all like for Christmas, I have a Christmas cupboard (actually, it's a huge bag on top of the fridge but we'll call it a Christmas cupboard as everyone else I know who does this has an actual … [Read more...]
The Rose Gold Gift Guide….
I think I mentioned in my Teen girl gift guide that Miss Frugal was rather obsessed with all things rose gold at the moment (honestly, she is OBSESSED - everything from her phone to her trainers is rose gold right now).Anyway, I spent an hour this morning having a look around to see what stocking fillers I could get her that would satisfy her love of rose gold and I realised there was an awful lot of rose gold loveliness out there.I thought I'd make a little rose gold gift guide to share the prettiness with you all but I just wanted to make it clear that if a certain 14 year old is … [Read more...]
