Do you have clothes that need a bit of love - missing buttons, bobbly fabric, holey knitwear... Me Too! That's why today's post is all about how to rescue old clothes!I love a good pre-loved bargain when it comes to clothes but every now and again, I get a bargain home and find a little flaw that I missed in the shop in my excitement to grab a deal. I do usually give them a good check but I inevitably do miss things every now and again and finding a flaw on an item when I get home hurts me! 😂And it's not just my pre-loved bargains that sometimes need a bit of TLC, I have … [Read more...]
How I’ve made £100 in a month from cashback websites…
In the last month, I've earned just over £100 from TopCashBack without making any particular effort so today, I'm sharing how I did it with you guys in case any of you aren't already converted to cashback websites.I know it's not a huge amount but I haven't made any special efforts so I thought you might be interested in seeing how easy it is to earn cashback. Whenever I tell people how easy it is to earn money with cashback websites, I get one of three answers... (a) You don't need to tell me! I use them all the time.

How to prepare for a storm {with a handy storm prep checklist}….
OK, I can see the irony of me writing a post called 'how to prepare for a storm' whilst sitting on my bed watching the rain lashing down on my windows and listening to the wind howling around the house. But still, it's what I've been Googling this morning so I thought I'd share what I'd learned.But it has occurred to me just how woefully unprepared I would have been had we not been so lucky here in the North East to have avoided the worst of it. And that's even after the last big storm we had a couple of months ago was bad enough to topple my little greenhouse over and take … [Read more...]

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. 1) Big News! Huge News!Miss Frugal has a home of her own (well her and her boyfriend that is).It's a reasonably sized one bedroomed flat in the centre of town in a nice little converted building - she is literally one minute from the beach, bars, shops and the train station which is how she gets to work and uni which makes it perfect location wise for her and … [Read more...]
Ham and Courgette Risotto…
Ham and Courgette Risotto is literally the best comfort food I know how to make (aside from Mac and Cheese obviously) so I'm doing you all a favour today sharing it with you!Honestly, it's amazing! I mean, it must be amazing to get me stood over a hot stove making risotto as I'm usually all about quick and easy when it comes to cooking!I'm the only person who's a fan of ham and courgette risotto (and any kind of risotto) in my house so I always make a portion big enough to serve two people and then have just over half for my tea and the rest of it for lunch the next day. I tend to … [Read more...]
How Intentional Spending can change your life….
Have you heard of intentional spending before? It's something I first wrote about back in 2016 but it's been on my mind quite a bit lately so I thought it would be a good time to have a chat...Basically, intentional spending (to me anyway) is about consciously thinking about what I choose to spend my disposable income on and allowing myself to spend money on the things that make me feel happy. I might spend money on things that you think are a waste of money or are 'frivolous' purchases but I save money somewhere else in my budget to allow me to be able to spend on the … [Read more...]
