Learn how to clean your engagement ring at home and bring the sparkle back...Remember when you first got your engagement ring and you couldn't stop looking at it?The sparkle represented everything good to come and you couldn't resist peeking at it throughout the day when you should have been concentrating on other things (or was that just me who loves a good bit of sparkle?). Then over time, the sparkle dulls just a little as you forget to take your ring off when you wash the pots, cook the tea or do the cleaning and eventually you don't even bother trying to remember to take it … [Read more...]

10 sites to help you earn money from surveys….
Today I'm going to share with you a list of websites that you can use to earn money from surveys this year!What I will say up front is that earning extra money by completing surveys is never going to make you a millionaire. It will, however, make you a reasonable amount of money if you stick to it and could definitely add up to pay for next Christmas if you're consistent and have a little time on a regular basis to dedicate to completing surveys.I've done surveys myself in the past but never to a degree where I've earned more than about £15 a month which is good when you consider … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {26th January 2018}….
1) We bought Master Frugal a mountain bike for Christmas which he's over the moon with! This week, we sold his old bike on one of our local Facebook selling sites and because it was in great condition, the money we got for it will just about pay for a weekly food shop.2) The only company who supply the superfast broadband in our street at the moment is Virgin so we're pretty much tied to them as we do use the internet a lot in our house. We did get a better deal when we rang them the last time our contract ended but we called them yesterday on the off-chance that they could do anything … [Read more...]

Today I'm sharing the second post in my 'What we ate in a week' series!The plan with these posts is that I start writing this post the Monday before you read it each month and just update it each night with a photo of what we had for our tea that day. It worked pretty well last time I did this so let's see if I'm as good this time... MondayMushroom risotto was on the menu tonight, inspired by the pathetic looking mushrooms that were sitting in the bottom of the fridge. I added some chilli for a bit of heat too and it tasted lovely! TuesdayBefore Christmas, I bought a … [Read more...]
