1) I should have shared this last week but I completely forgot about it! It's a good one so I'm sure you don't mind me sharing it this week instead, right?Basically, Miss Frugal's bedroom drawers fell apart and no amount of glue was going to save them this time around (they're the one's we bought for her nursery before she was born) so we popped to IKEA to buy the Malm drawers and bedside cabinet that she's had her eye on for the last year!As we always do, we headed to the Bargain Basement as the last stop before paying where we found the same set of drawers that we had in our … [Read more...]

How to make a pretty teacup candle using tea lights….
Here's my cheat's version of a pretty teacup candle using tea lights and my favourite mug! Super easy, super cute and would make a great homemade gift!I love candles and in the past, I've thought about making my own so I could make something individual that would fit in with my home. The problem with making my own is that it involved buying the things I needed to make them and when I added the costs together with the time and effort involved then I figured I was better off sticking to buying the ones that I LOVE from Primark which smell amazing, last for ages and don't break the … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {14th July 2017}….
1) Did you see my homemade sunglasses case on Sunday?It's my first sewing project and I'm over the moon with it just because I know I made it myself!2) I'm a bit of an Ed Sheeran fan, not a mega fan but I do enjoy listening to his music so when the tickets went on sale last Saturday I was determined to get some tickets for me and Mr Frugal to go along. I waited and waited in a queue and finally got to the front and actually managed to get some tickets allocated with a ten minute timer to make the payment before they were released to the next person in the queue.But then I … [Read more...]
DIY Sunglasses case….
I think I *may* have mentioned a few times that Miss Frugal and I both have a little bit of a sunglasses obsession. ;-) She has all sorts of pairs ranging from bargains to designer brands which she buys from places like SmartBuyGlasses UK online (she loves a good deal) and there's a couple of pairs in her collection that she's saved for ages to treat herself to so she always shops around. ;-) Have I ever shown you my teen's sunglasses collection. I think she gets her obsession from me :-) 😎 A post shared by UK Thrifty Family Blogger (@frugalfamily) on Feb 22, 2017 at … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {30th June 2017}….
1) Despite the heat, I'm still loving soup for my lunch and I've had it three times this week. ;-) I bought a pack of pre-chopped soup mix from Asda in their reduced fruit and veg section so it worked out at around 15p a portion.Even at full price these pre-prepared soup packs work out as good value although it is a little waterier (is that a word) than my version of spicy butternut squash and sweet potato soup but actually I do quite like it that way.2) We went to the car boot sale last weekend and managed to get Tri-ominoes for the bargain price of 50p as our old and battered … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {23rd June 2017}….
1) Last weekend when it was ridiculously hot I bought some cheap reduced price lemons and lovely Miss Frugal made me some homemade lemonade as she knows how much I enjoy her lemonade. She usually makes mint lemonade but we didn't have any mint so she just made it plain and it was so refreshing.Not sure it was worth the clean up in the kitchen that she left me though!Also, you can tell she's grown up with me blogging as she made the lemonade, took a photo of it worthy of Instagram and remembered to tell me what she used to make it! Then she told me I owed her £5 which is our … [Read more...]
