I don’t know about you but I’ve always been pretty loyal when it comes to perfume – I tend to wear Tommy Girl in the Summer and Gucci Rush in the Winter with a bit of Joe Malone Honey Blossom and Nectarine when my budget allows.Because of my fragrance brand loyalty, Mr Frugal has a pretty easy time as far as Birthday, Anniversary and Christmas presents go and I usually have a constant supply of my favourite perfumes.Miss Frugal, who’s recently discovered a love of perfume, doesn’t have the same brand loyalty when it comes to perfume and she smells different every day thanks to her ever … [Read more...]

Delicious slow cooker gammon cooked in Dr Pepper….
Last week we managed to pick up a good sized gammon joint reduced to £2.56 when we popped into Tesco to see if we could find any bargains. Our local Tesco is a funny one as the best bargains are around about 5pm and if you go much later then there's nothing left at all other than limp looking salad usually.Since it was so cheap, we decided that we would have a go at something we'd been wanting to try for a while - gammon cooked in Dr Pepper! We'd been put off making it in the past by the thought of wasting a good gammon joint if we didn't like the results but seeing as the joint had been … [Read more...]
13 clever ways to help your child develop a healthy attitude to money….
We've all heard the saying that 'Money won't buy you happiness' and although I completely agree with that, I also can't deny that having money certainly makes like a lot easier! For that reason, I want my children to leave home (not yet but one day ;-)) with a healthy attitude to money and to be able to budget and save and do all the grown up money stuff that it took me years to figure out after I left home.As I was trying to list some of the things I do to with my two to help them learn about money, I actually realised that I do more than I thought I did and I bet you're the same - some … [Read more...]
How to get good quality meat for great prices….
Let me just say straight away that this isn't a review. Or rather it is a review but one that I'm writing because I placed an order myself with Muscle Foods and I was so impressed with the quality of food for the price I paid that I wanted to share it with you guys too. Some of the links I've included are affiliate links though which means that if you do buy something, you'll pay exactly the same but I might also get something too. Thanks. ;-)I don't know about you but I always feel better buying something from a company when I've been recommended them by people that I know so when the … [Read more...]
Small things that make me smile {July 2016}….
Without wanting to sound all woe is me, July hasn't been the easiest month for us as I've not been well at all recently. I'm a lot better now thanks to some very strong painkillers and I'm hoping that my appointment at the hospital this week will get me sorted once and for all so there's nothing to be overly concerned about.We've still had a lovely month though with some amazing highs so I'm going to focus on those today and share some of the small things that have made me smile this month.I'll start with an update on Master Frugal because he's made me smile a lot this month and … [Read more...]
The end of an era….
Master Frugal has now completed a full two weeks at the secondary school he'll be attending in September and so far, he's liking it which is a huge relief. I'm not sure how the schools deal with transition in your area but here the kids spend pretty much the whole of July at their new schools to help them get used to it ready for when they start for real in September.His time at his Junior school ended at the start of the month with a very emotional leavers ceremony that had me sat with a lump in my throat from the moment it started. I managed to (almost) stop the tears from falling … [Read more...]
