The super-easy cheesy potato soup recipe is my new favourite soup recipe!Honestly, this is the most AMAZING soup - everyone in my house loved it and that doesn't happen often! ;-)I made it almost by mistake a few weeks ago when I found some spring onions and potatoes on offer in Tesco a few weeks ago - I had a vague plan of making some sort of potato soup but version one was a bit plain so I added the cheese and discover the best soup known to mankind*!*OK, this may be a slight exaggeration. Or it may not, you won't know until you try it. Don’t miss out on … [Read more...]
Are you ready for Second Hand September? #SecondHandSeptember

That's a pretty scary fact for someone who's trying to live a more sustainable lifestyle!Unfortunately, it's a fact that 'fast' fashion is having a huge effect on our planet!

Five Frugal Things we did this week {30 August 2019}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things.

There are so many different ways that you can make money online and even though, I've probably talked about a fair few of them in the past, I thought I'd start a little mini-series where we look at each one in a bit more detail.

August’s Frugal Fails – because I’m not always as frugal as you might think!….
This may come as a surprise to you (although more than likely not) but I'm not always a shining example of frugal-ness. ;-) I spend so much time on here sharing ways to save money and ideas on how to be frugal and rarely share much of the non-frugal side of my life so I thought I'd start a monthly post to share some of the slightly non-frugal things I've done! I hope it shows you that no-one's perfect This is the second post in my frugal fails series- the first is here and the second one is here if you want to see the last few month's frugal fails. Frugal Fail #1 - … [Read more...]
How to get cheaper car insurance if your mileage is low….
Do you want to know a cheeky little secret about how to get cheaper car insurance? Before I share the secret on how to get cheaper car insurance, let me tell you why I'm a bit car insurance mad at the moment. It's because Miss Frugal is 17 in a couple of weeks and she is campaigning hard right now for a car.The car itself isn't the issue as we have some money set aside for that as it was always our aim to get the kids a car when they passed their test. The issue is the car insurance, which I've had some quotes for that would make your eyes water. I knew it … [Read more...]
