Today we're sharing out tried and tested (and re-tested) version of jelly gummy bears (and some syn free gummy sweets using the same recipe) along with a slightly embarrassing Pinterest fail version of their American cousins.The last time I made these I made Pink Prosecco jelly gummy bears and they were amazing....My children are obsessed with anything American - be it sweets, food or make-up (that last one is just Miss Frugal obviously ;-)) so when we found ourselves with a box of Jell-O they knew exactly what they were going to make - Jell-O Gummy … [Read more...]

Yummy Avocado Brownies….
Miss Frugal has gone avocado mad lately and would have Avocado toast for every meal if I let her. When we found ourselves with a bit of an avocado overload last weekend, we decided to switch it up a bit and make avocado brownies!First of all, I want to tell you how we ended up with so many avocados because we all know that they're not a particularly cheap thing to buy. Morrisons have started selling wonky fruit and vegetables and I found a pack of wonky avocados which had about five for £1.56 so I bought a pack but forgot we already had a two pack at home.We've been meaning to … [Read more...]

1) I bought some cheap white clay from Amazon and have used my £6 pack to make everything from coasters to Christmas decorations!I shared the Christmas decorations on Wednesday and I'm planning to share a few of the other things I've made this month but in the meantime, I'm going to class my purchase of the white clay as my first fabulously frugal thing for this week. ;-)2) I've started my Christmas cupboard this week although, due to the fact my cupboards are jam-packed right now, my Christmas cupboard is actually a big box in the garage. As a rule, I don't generally over-shop … [Read more...]
What you need in your Frugal Cleaning Kit….
These days there's product upon product stacked on the supermarket shelves promising to give make your home sparkle and shine, but do you really need them?I definitely don't think you do although there are a few that I buy - Domestos bleach and Fairy Liquid are the two main ones that I can think of. Domestos because my Mam always used to say that the only bleach she would buy was Domestos and it's in my head now even though I know you can probably get cheaper bleach that's just as effective. I have tried a couple of times but always gone back to Domestos.Domestos because my Mam … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {27th October 2017}….
1) I've printed out a batch of my 'No Halloweeners here' sign for some friends who have young children that they don't want disturbing after a certain time. You can print one off for yourself if you'd like to here.I've seen that you can buy them in shops for a couple of pounds but it costs me pennies to print one off for them and it saves the stress of hoping that each knock isn't going to wake the kids up.2) I've made a batch of my homemade Halloween chocolate bark this week using a cheap pack of Halloween sweets that I got from the pound shop. I use value chocolate when I make … [Read more...]
