Miss Frugal loves a good body scrub, as do I, and this one is my favourite so far - whipped pink lemonade body scrub!Honestly, I'm pretty sure we could give The Body Shop a run for their money with all the homemade beauty recipes that we've tried recently. Pinterest has a LOT to answer for - Miss Frugal currently has a very full board that she calls 'DIY recipes to try' and we're working our way through it pin by pin.Today was pink lemonade body scrub but not just any pink lemonade body scrub - this is whipped pink lemonade body scrub and I can guarantee that you're going to like … [Read more...]

Every six month's or so, we sit down and do a full-on review of our monthly budget review which I usually share a bit about in my weekly five frugal things post but this time, I thought I'd do a whole post about it.Before I start though, I would say that our budget is looking good right now but it's taken years to get to this point from where we were when we started our frugal journey and I'm super proud of us!

Homemade Shake n Vac….
Today I'm going all nostalgic on you and sharing some TV ads from my youth which I bet lots of you of a certain age will remember just as well as I do. The reason I'm sharing them is that I've made a batch of my own homemade Shake n Vac and the whole time I was making and using it, I couldn't help but sing the song.In fact, aside from the milky way advert with the two cars racing each other, the only other advert I can remember from when I was growing up is the Glade Shake n Vac one. They're both songs that remind me of watching TV with my Mam and Dad and always make me smile for that … [Read more...]
