When the kids were younger, I used to really look forward to September when they would go back to school after the Summer holidays because I loved the fresh start that September gave us all. New school year, back to work after time off over the Summer, the change in weather from Summer to my favourite season and the promise of the last few months of the year which happen to be my favourite few months. I always felt super motivated to make positive changes in my life in September and I still get that feeling today so September is still a time for me to make a few changes (even the end of … [Read more...]
Five Holidays You Never Thought You Could Afford….
Over the years, I've been really lucky to have travelled to some great places - many of which you would think would have been out of budget but with careful planning I've made it work!We're away next week on holiday to Iceland which many people tell me is on their bucket list but they've not done it as they think it's too expensive but honestly, it's not cost us anywhere near what you would think and we've really planned to make sure it's affordable when we're there. Our trip next week just proves my theory that many dream trips are more affordable than people realise - … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {27th September 2025}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during the previous 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. Hey!1) I forgot to share this last week so I'm going to pretend it was this week... 😁It was Miss Frugal's Birthday last week and even though she's older now, I still like to make a bit of a fuss.

Save money by changing your washing machine habits….
With the rising costs of electricity, I've been thinking about the different ways that we could all save a little bit of money. One of the areas that we can probably save some money would be by making a few small changes to the way that we do our washing and over the years, I think I've perfected my washing machine routine to use as little water and electricity as possible. Don't get me wrong, this isn't going to save you a fortune but when prices are as high as they are right now then every penny in your pocket is a bonus! I asked ChatGPT what the savings could be if the tips below … [Read more...]
Our Summer Holiday to Bulgaria (And Why We Surprisingly Loved It)….
Last month, we did something a little different for our family holiday — we went to Bulgaria on a package holiday!It’s not somewhere we’d ever really thought about before if I’m honest and when we discussed what to do for our Summer holiday with the kids, a package holiday wasn't our first thought. We usually plan everything ourselves, booking the flights and hotels separately, but this time we fancied something a bit easier as we'd already been lucky enough to do a couple of other very busy holidays this year and for the first time ever, the thought of lazing about on a sunbed with … [Read more...]
