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. Hey! 👐Well, it's been a while since I shared a 'five frugal things' post and you know what? I've missed writing these posts more than anything else I missed during my little blogging hiatus these last few months. For years now, these posts have kept me accountable to myself and to saving money and it's become a habit to file my little money-saving … [Read more...]
Happy New Year….
Oh dear!I think it's been around three months since I last posted on here or even over on Instagram and as much as I did miss my little online community, I really needed the time away to help me to refocus and to concentrate on a bit of life admin including lots of time spent on me.It's been longer than three months since I actually enjoyed blogging though as my life dramas last year and a super nasty comment on here really threw me - more than they should have done if I'm honest but it is what it is at this point and I've genuinely felt ready to open my laptop again for the last … [Read more...]
Little Joys at Christmas….
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.

Higher Costs: Car Insurance Rates To Increase In 2023…
Like me, you've probably noticed that car insurance has increased substantially over the last year or so - my renewal came through a couple of weeks ago and had gone up by £8 a month, despite there being no difference to anything in the policy. I'm actually canceling mine anyway as my Audi was stolen a couple of weeks ago and I've now replaced it with a 15 year old Ford Fiesta that costs around 60% less to insure but for those of you who are seeing the same increases that I would have seen then I feel for you.Many experts claim that we should probably buckle in because the rates … [Read more...]
