I know it's a bit early for Elf on a Shelf but lots of people have started following my Elf on a Shelf Pinterest board over the last week so I figured people might be starting to plan their elf activities a little earlier this year!I love the idea of Elf on a Shelf at Christmas (although last year a few people did get a bit too elf obsessed ;-)) but I absolutely don't love the idea of paying £25+ for a doll that looks more than a little scary and would more than likely give me nightmares and a book that explains what Elf on a Shelf is all about.This is what the original Elf on a Shelf … [Read more...]
How to get the best deals on Amazon….
I do a lot of my Christmas shopping online because (a) it's much more enjoyable to shop from your settee than to brave the cold and the masses of stressed out shoppers and (b) it's so much easier to find bargains online than it is in the shops.I love Amazon for shopping online but the one thing that annoys me about Amazon is how much the prices fluctuate from day to day and even from hour to hour. As annoying as this can be though, it does mean that you can get some great deals if you are on the ball.This year, I've discovered a site called CamelCamelCamel which has helped me find … [Read more...]

How to make homemade Skittles Vodka….
I first heard about homemade Skittles Vodka a few years ago now but I've never actually got around to making it until last week - probably because I was a bit dubious about it tasting as nice as people said it did and I didn't want to waste perfectly good vodka!I don't have as many photos of this as I really should have for a tutorial type post but that's because I took the photos on Mr Frugal's phone which he then wiped and did a factory re-set on without saving the photos. Clever or what?I do have a few though from Instagram so I'm going to make do with what I have and hope it's … [Read more...]
