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!I don't know about you but I always find November to be one of those months where my spending can really creep up without me realising - I start to rely on the heating more as the weather turns, there's more pressure to spend with Black Friday and Cyber Monday and Christmas is approaching ridiculously quickly. That all means that I'm trying to be … [Read more...]
Tips and tricks to make hiring a car stress free….
Whenever we travel anywhere, we like to hire a car. To us, it's the cheapest way to get out and about and really explore the area that we're in which is our aim whenever we go somewhere new and we're pretty confident now when it comes to hiring a car so I thought it might help to share a few of our tips to make our car hire experience as stress free as possible.

Christmas is such a lovely time of year – full of warmth, joy, and a bit of sparkle – but it can also be expensive.

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.

Have you started your Christmas Cupboard? If not, now is the time….
It's that time of year again when I start thinking about my Christmas Cupboard.If you don't know what I mean by my 'Christmas Cupboard' then let me tell you before we go any further. 🎄So, my Christmas Cupboard is literally a cupboard in our kitchen that I use at this time of year to start stashing Christmas goodies in. I buy something for Christmas every week when I do my weekly food shop from the end of October right up until we do our Christmas shop. I don't have a set list of things that I buy, it's more about what's on offer each week when we go … [Read more...]
