If you're planning a Disney World holiday for 2027 then there's a good chance you've already come across the 14-Day Magic Ticket, especially if you're planning to go for a couple of weeks like lots of UK families do.Disney tickets aren't cheap though, especially when you're buying for a whole family, so it's definitely worth spending a bit of time working out exactly what you're getting for your money and, more importantly, whether you're actually going to use enough of the ticket to make it worthwhile.We've been to Disney World ourselves and I know how easy it is to get carried … [Read more...]
Things I’ve Stopped Buying Because They’ve Got Too Expensive….
I stopped for petrol recently and, while I was waiting to pay, I spotted a Bounty by the till and quite fancied one. Then I saw that it was £1.20. £1.20 for a Bounty! When did that happen? 😳I know petrol stations have never exactly been the cheapest place to buy chocolate, but I can remember when adding a chocolate bar while you were paying for petrol was just a little treat that you didn’t really think twice about. It got me thinking about all the other things that have reached that point for me lately. Not necessarily things that I can’t afford to buy, but things that have … [Read more...]
What I found when I did a full freezer audit…
I haven’t shared a proper meal plan for a little while, mainly because meal planning has been a bit more hit and miss than usual over the last few months.Earlier in the year, when I was off work and not very well, we actually worked our way through a lot of the food that I’d previously batch cooked and stashed away in the freezer. That’s exactly what it was there for, so I was very grateful for it at the time, but once I was feeling better and went back to work I never really got around to building those stocks back up again.Getting back into work life was a bigger adjustment than … [Read more...]
10 Top Places & Experiences for Wine Lovers in Cyprus….
Cyprus is one of those places that I seem to keep going back to. I think I’ve been about eight times now if I include the holidays I had there when I was little, and even after all those visits there are still plenty of parts of the island that I haven’t properly explored.Most of our more recent trips have been very much about sunshine, family time and relaxing, but there’s so much more to Cyprus than the beaches and resorts that most of us head to when we visit.One thing that I’ve never really explored properly is the wine side of Cyprus, which is surprising when you realise just how … [Read more...]
5 Budget-Friendly Tips To Refresh Your Bedroom This Weekend….
We’ve only been in our new house for a few months and I feel like I’ve spent most of that time moving things around, painting things and working out what works where. 😂There are so many things I want to do eventually, but after the cost of moving house, I’m definitely not looking to spend a fortune doing everything at once. I’m quite enjoying taking my time with each room and seeing what I can do with what we already have before going out and buying anything new.Our bedroom is a good example because sometimes it really doesn’t take much to make a room feel different. A bit of a … [Read more...]
Five little things that have saved us money this week {25th September 2026}….
Every week I share five small things we’ve done to save a bit of money, make life easier or help us spend more intentionally. None of them are usually huge on their own, but that’s kind of the point. Those small choices add up over time and give us more room for the things that really matter — whether that’s days out, holidays, home projects, treats we’ll actually enjoy or just a bit more breathing space in the budget.I made a fridge-bottom frittata I had a bit of a fridge rummage this week and made a frittata using some random bits that needed using up – spring onion, sausage and some … [Read more...]
