This post is in conjunction with Boots UK but all thoughts are my ownHonestly, the phrase 'cost of living crisis' really is my most hated phrase right now. I hate that so many families across the UK are struggling with life's essentials like heating their house and putting food on their table and fuel in their cars, let alone being able to afford the nice-to-have things in life.It's really influenced the way that I've approached Christmas this year as I'm sure it has many of you and this year, there won't be a pile of presents on the floor when the kids come downstairs on Christmas … [Read more...]
Why camping in the UK makes an amazing family holiday….
I can't recommend camping in the UK highly enough as a cheaper option for a family holiday - today I'm going to tell you why!We're going through a tough time here in the UK right now with the cost of living crisis with prices soaring and some families having to make some really tough decisions about where they can cut back on costs simply to be able to live.This is not one of those tough decisions though and I almost didn't publish this post as I feel like many people aren't going to have the luxury of having a holiday at all, never mind getting to make a choice between camping in … [Read more...]
Review: The Deep, Hull….
Check me out getting out and about to all these new places - last week you got a Beamish Open Air Museum review and this week you're getting a cheeky review of The Deep in Hull. 😂Before I tell you about The Deep itself, I thought I'd just let you know that I used my Tesco Clubcard Vouchers to pay for our entry which was a bit more complicated than it usually is when redeeming vouchers.The actual buying of the vouchers was just as simple as it always is, just choose The Deep on the Tesco Rewards site and redeem however many Tesco Clubcard vouchers you want to redeem to pay … [Read more...]
Making Christmas Memories….
I heard Master Frugal last night talking to one of his friends about Christmas in our house and it really made me smile. He was telling them about some of his favourite Christmas presents from over the years! Some of the memories he has of his favourite presents surprised me a little bit though...I know how lucky my two have been over the years and when blogging was at its peak I remember feeling a bit overwhelmed at times with the number of presents we were able to give them thanks to the generosity of brands who sent us gifts either to review or lots of times to say thank you for … [Read more...]
Review: Beamish Open Air Museum….
I recently visited Beamish Open Air Museum for the first time in more years than I can remember and I was super impressed! It's a great value family day out in the North East and I wanted to share how much fun I had with you today...Beamish Open Air Museum is a living, working museum in the North East of England. It's set over around 350 acres of beautiful Durham countryside and there's so much to do and see there that you can easily spend the full day visiting and still not see it all. There are fabulous Actors in costume everywhere who do a great job of bringing to life at various … [Read more...]
Five things to buy from Farmfoods….
Today I'm sharing my top five things to buy from Farmfoods if you have a branch near you! Farmfoods is one of my favourite freezer shops but for some reason, I thought it was just a small local company with just a couple of branches so I've never really shouted about it on here. I've just discovered that they're pretty much everywhere across the UK though so I thought I'd share a couple of the things I regularly buy from there.First of all though, a quick reminder about why frozen food is key to meal planning and saving money in the kitchen...Frozen food is often cheaper … [Read more...]
