Have you ever wondered how to sell things on Facebook to make some extra cash?Over the last few years, Facebook selling groups have been popping up left, right and centre and as far as I'm concerned, they've completely overtaken eBay as my favourite way to sell unwanted things. While Facebook was mainly created for social networking, the impact it has created to internet users is undeniably overwhelming. It even penetrated business industry and became a new form of advertising channel."It's super easy to list items for sale, there's no charges and no faffing about with postage - what … [Read more...]
Is now the time to make a Spring resolution?
As you probably already know, I started Slimming World back in January and so far I've lost a stone which I know is great because a stone is a stone but it's less than I wanted to have lost by this point and during March I found myself feeling with less determination that I'd started with back in January.I felt like I was using any excuse not to stick to my diet and although I didn't put any weight back on, I was practically the same weight at the end of March than I was at the start of the month which is so frustrating!The the clocks went forward and the nights got lighter and I … [Read more...]
Clear your Clutter – Week 2….
Last week we managed to completely clear out our cup cupboard which left enough space to move the candyfloss maker into the cupboard. The knock on effect of this is that I was left with space where the candy floss maker had previously been stashed in our bureau which means that I can now open the bureau door without everything falling out!This week, I decided to look at the kids DVDs (not Mr Frugal's as that's a whole other task that he can do himself) and see what I can get rid of from their collection which seems to have accumulated to a ridiculous amount over the years. We did have a … [Read more...]
How to make shabby chic wall art and a menu planner using wallpaper samples….
One of the things I was planning to do when I did my living room makeover last weekend was to get some large ornate style photo frames and frame some wallpaper samples rather than wallpapering a whole wall. I was a bit disappointed that I never managed to do this as I couldn't find the style frames that I was looking (I'm still on the lookout though) but today I have done something similar in my kitchen and I think it looks brilliant.I bought the frames from Ikea this afternoon and they're cost £2 for the smaller frames and £4 for the larger one. These frames are great for the … [Read more...]
Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve done this week {1st April 2016}….
I'm so pleased it's Friday!After another very long and tiring week, I'm not sure if I actually five frugal things to share with you, let's see if I can make it to five....1) I bought some bags of pre-prepared veg from Tesco reduced section this week reduced to 23p a pack. I managed to make four portions of my favourite spicy butternut squash and sweet potato soup and the rest was used to make a super quick casserole in the slow cooker. I just added the veg, two chicken stock cubes some leftover chicken and a bit of boiling water and popped it on high for two and a half … [Read more...]
Are you wasting money heating your home?
This time of year is the perfect time to be thinking about saving money on your heating bills next Winter!That sounds odd I know but if you're anything like us, you're using your heating less and less now that Spring has arrived and I'm sure that in a couple of weeks we'll barely have it on again until the cold weather kicks in again later in the year.If you identify areas where you can cut costs now then you've got plenty of time to get them all done before the cold weather does start because believe me, you'll be a lot less inclined to take action in the cold dark Winter months than … [Read more...]
