Hand up if you've promised yourself that you're going to make 2018 the year you lose weight/tone up/get fit?If your hand is up (even metaphorically) then you'd be in good company, especially as my hand is right up there with yours!Getting fit and losing weight is one thing but I know countless people who have signed up for a gym during the super-motivated first stages of a New Years Resolution and regretted it within weeks so I wanted to share this post with you today in the hope that I save someone from potentially making a very expensive mistake.You absolutely do NOT need a … [Read more...]
Three Prom dresses for under £7.50….
A couple of months ago I was sat with Miss Frugal watching a TV show about a group of girls getting ready for their proms and the cost of some of the dresses they were wearing was astronomical - I'm talking a month's worth of food shopping budget on the dress alone. By the time you add on the shoes, the bag and the professional hair and make up, you could probably pay for a family holiday!We have a good year or so left before we need to start thinking about prom and all that comes with it but I decided to prove to Miss Frugal that you don't need to spend a small fortune on a dress by … [Read more...]
Review: November Birchbox….
It's been a few months since Miss Frugal has done a review of her monthly Birchbox subscription box but she loved this month's box that much that she asked if she could share it with you.....Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics - Lip Tar Primer This is supposed to help keep your lipstick in place and looking good for longer which basically means it makes your lipstick stay on for longer than usual.

25 Money Saving Life Hacks that will make your world a better place….
I might have mentioned that Miss Frugal has discovered Pinterest recently and has all sorts of random boards set up (including a Christmas wish list) but her favourite board by far is her beauty hacks board and she's regularly sharing new beauty life hacks with me.Over the last week or so she's shared quite a few with me that have actually been quite good and it's got me thinking about what money saving life hacks I can come up with. These are the first lot that I've come up with....When you're doing your weekly shop, look at the products on the lower and higher shelves as … [Read more...]
Budget DIY Lush Oatifix Facemask….
I might have mentioned in the past that Miss Frugal has a slight obsession with Lush which has resulted in rather a lot of her pocketmoney being spent in our local store in the past.The problem for her is that she's now trying to save up for our trip to New York next year so she's decided no more Lush until we get back - which should in fact be quite easy considering that she has at least a year's supply of bath bombs in her room somewhere!Because she isn't buying anything from Lush right now, she's been scouring Pinterest for her favourite products to see if she can make her own … [Read more...]
Super Easy Homemade Bath Bombs….
Miss Frugal has been asking me for ages now if she can have a go at making her own bath bombs and I always put her off because there are so many different methods of making them out there that call for ingredients I wouldn't normally have in the house.It finally got to the point where I couldn't put her off any longer so last weekend, I gathered the ingredients we needed and sat and watched her make her version of homemade bath bombs and actually, they came out OK. I don't think we're going to be up there with Lush but I do think that she might actually be able to pull of her plan to … [Read more...]
