Today I wanted to share with you how to use my Christmas Family Traditions Poster Maker to make an amazing frugal and free Fathers Day Gift.If the Dad in your life is anything like Mr Frugal, he'll pretty much buy himself the things he needs as and when he needs them and don't really want 'stuff' for the sake of giving a gift on Fathers Day.In the past, we've always felt like we needed to buy him something so we've ended up buying something just for the sake of it and although, he's always grateful for whatever we give him I know he would have quite happily not had a gift.So … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {14 June 2019}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that 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.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things. We all have different financial situations and we're all frugal for different reasons. ;-)1) It's Fathers Day on Sunday here in the UK so I've tasked the kids with thinking … [Read more...]
How to get 2 for 1 cinema tickets all year for just £1.01 with Meerkat Movies…
Today I'm going to tell you exactly how you can get 2 for 1 cinema tickets for a year with Meerkat Movies.Before I start though, I know I've told you this before and I know this is an old money-saving hack but it's a good one so I thought it deserved its own post this year as I renew mine rather than tucking it away in a five frugal things post as I did last time.Basically, if you weren't aware then Meerkat Movies is something you can benefit from when you compare and buy a qualifying product from Compare the Market. You can then get 2 for 1 cinema tickets every Tuesday or … [Read more...]
Free Printable Girl Power Wall Art….
Today I've got some super pretty free printable Girl Power wall art prints for you to print out. They look amazing when they're framed - even in the cheap certificate style frames you can pick up in the pound shop.When I sat down last month to write out some of the ideas for blog content this month, I thought about what we had going on in June and top of my list was Miss Frugal leaving school. To celebrate that, I thought it might be nice to do a few posts around encouraging our children to be the best they can as they grow up and this was my first idea... The … [Read more...]

Homemade moustache and beard balm….
This homemade essential oils moustache and beard balm is a perfect gift for Father's Day, obviously presuming the Dad in your life had a moustache or a beard! ;-)Mr Frugal decided a little while ago that he wanted to grow a cheeky beard and I'm not going to lie, we all hated it! He's most definitely not a beard person but it took him a little while to realise what we already knew and shave it off. ;-)In the three weeks that he was growing it, he not only struggled to keep it looking tidy which was necessary for his work but he also found it to be quite itchy at times as he … [Read more...]
